The route
A genuine long haul at 1,880 miles from Texas to Oregon. Almost all of these move as consolidated freight: your goods share a trailer and the carrier quotes 7 to 14 days rather than a date. It is why a two-bedroom home here runs $8,460 – $11,280 instead of scaling straight with distance, and also why there is more handling and a looser schedule.

Worked example: a two-bedroom home, Dallas to Eugene
1,880 miles × 2.0 (two-bedroom size multiplier) × $2.50 (full-service rate) = $9,400. The range runs 10% under that to 20% over: $8,460 to $11,280, transport only. Every parameter is on the methodology page; moving cost per mile explains why the rate falls with distance.
How many people move from Dallas to Eugene
The Census Bureau's American Community Survey (2016–2020) estimates that about 35 people a year (±54) moved from Dallas County, TX, home to Dallas, to Lane County, OR, home to Eugene. The margin of error is as large as the estimate, so read it as a handful of households rather than a count. Too few went the other way to estimate. Movers from Dallas County make up 0.1% of the 27,282 people a year who moved into Lane County from another county or state.
At state level, the 2024 survey counts about 6,446 people a year (±1,564) moving from Texas to Oregon and about 6,248 people a year (±2,133) from Oregon to Texas — a net gain for Oregon of about 198 people a year.

How these figures are calculated
At the Eugene end
For a local crew after delivery, the largest licensed carriers within 30 miles of Eugene: Cross Town Movers (Eugene, 16 trucks), Bertsch Moving & Storage Co Inc (Corvallis, 11 trucks), Active Transfer Inc (Eugene, 9 trucks), Emerald Moving Inc (Eugene, 8 trucks).
Rules that apply to this move
Because the truck crosses from Texas into Oregon, 49 CFR Part 375 applies: a written estimate before loading, no more than 110% of a non-binding estimate collected at delivery, and full-value protection unless you choose released value in writing. See binding vs non-binding estimates and valuation explained.
Before you book Dallas to Eugene
Insist on a survey
Over 1,880 miles the price is driven almost entirely by weight. A quote given without a video or in-home survey is a guess that gets revised upward on loading day, and at this distance the revision is expensive.
Keep full-value protection
It is the default on an interstate move. Signing it away for released value means 60 cents per pound, about $18 for a 30 lb television, after 1,880 miles of handling.
Arriving in Eugene
A local move inside Eugene later — across town, out of temporary housing — is billed by the hour: about $515 – $859 for a two-bedroom home and $867 – $1,587 for three bedrooms. The nearest cities we cover from Eugene are Salem (about 72 mi), Portland (about 121 mi), Vancouver (about 130 mi).
