Waco, TX → Glendale, AZ · Long-distance move
About 1,042 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,730–$7,030, delivery in 3–7 days, 121 carriers on the Waco side and 1,051 in Glendale.
The route from Waco, TX to Glendale, AZ covers roughly 1,042 miles by road, a west-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.
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 $4,730 to $7,030 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 18 h 40 min.
On the Waco side there are 121 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (34 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,051 around Glendale (452 interstate). For an interstate 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 Glendale.
Waco has a population of about 147,788 and Glendale about 260,572. Glendale is the denser city (4,031 people per square mile versus 1,561 in Waco), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Arizona does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,042 road miles (883 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 18 h 40 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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.
Yes. Crossing from Texas into Arizona makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,520 to $2,150 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,950 to $2,870. 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.
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 Waco–Glendale corridor.
