Reverse: Richardson → Texarkana

Richardson sits about 183 miles west of Texarkana, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a regional long-distance move.

At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $2,190 to $3,260 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 2 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 3 h 51 min.

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 1,078 around Richardson (453 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 Richardson.

Texarkana has a population of about 37,000 and Richardson about 118,542. Richardson is the denser city (4,177 people per square mile versus 1,152 in Texarkana), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,210 to $1,790 for a studio, $1,320 to $1,960 for a one-bedroom, $2,190 to $3,260 for a two-bedroom, $3,510 to $5,220 for a three-bedroom and $4,830 to $7,180 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Richardson from Texarkana?

About 183 road miles (155 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 3 h 51 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.

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

No. Because both Texarkana and Richardson 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 Richardson?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $340 to $480 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,180 to $1,740. 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–Richardson corridor.
