Moving from Waco to Montgomery is a long-distance move of roughly 758 road miles, heading east from Texas to Alabama.
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 $3,780 to $5,630 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 13 h 46 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 172 around Montgomery (94 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 Montgomery.
Waco has a population of about 147,788 and Montgomery about 195,300. The two cities have comparable density (1,561 and 1,255 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Alabama than in Texas, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that Alabama does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
