Reverse: Longview → Texarkana

Longview sits about 89 miles southwest of Texarkana, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a short-haul move.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 14 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,410 and $2,090, before packing or storage.

On the Texarkana side there are 51 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (35 of them authorized for interstate work), and 89 around Longview (47 interstate). For an in-state move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Longview.

Texarkana has a population of about 37,000 and Longview about 82,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,152 and 1,462 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Tips for this move

Confirm whether travel time between Texarkana and Longview is billed one way or round trip.
A single-day move is realistic here; schedule loading in the morning so the crew arrives in Longview with daylight to spare.
Check Texas intrastate mover rules; many states require a state permit in addition to a USDOT number.
Group fragile items and tell the crew which boxes go in the cab or on top.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Texarkana to Longview?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $800 to $1,200 for a studio, $910 to $1,350 for a one-bedroom, $1,410 to $2,090 for a two-bedroom, $2,100 to $3,130 for a three-bedroom and $3,050 to $4,540 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Longview from Texarkana?

About 89 road miles (75 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 14 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Texarkana and Longview are in Texas, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Texarkana to Longview?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $240 to $340 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,100 to $1,620. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Texarkana–Longview corridor.
