The route from Wichita Falls, TX to Toms River, NJ covers roughly 1,656 miles by road, a northeast-bound trip that falls into the cross-country 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 $6,510 to $9,680 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 29 hours (4 driving days).
On the Wichita Falls side there are 41 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (13 of them authorized for interstate work), and 114 around Toms River (61 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 Toms River.
Wichita Falls has a population of about 101,951 and Toms River about 100,899. Toms River is the denser city (2,356 people per square mile versus 1,421 in Wichita Falls), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New Jersey is a higher-cost state than Texas, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that New Jersey does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,656 road miles (1,403 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 29 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 New Jersey 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 $2,300 to $3,250 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,500 to $3,670. 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 Wichita Falls–Toms River corridor.
