About this route

Why so many cars go from Texas to Oklahoma

About 29,790 people moved from Texas to Oklahoma in each of the last two years, according to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (31,506 in 2023, 28,074 in 2024). That is 6.2% of everyone who left Texas for another state, making Oklahoma its #4 destination.

Traffic runs both ways — about 24,161 people a year move from Oklahoma back to Texas — so carriers run this lane year-round and quotes tend to be steady.

How the price compares

At a typical $650, shipping from Texas to Oklahoma is one of the cheaper long moves out of Texas — Arkansas ($725) and Mississippi ($775) cost more. That works out to about $2.95 a mile — short runs cost more per mile because the fixed cost of loading and unloading weighs more.

Distance and transit time

At about 220 road miles, Dallas to Oklahoma City takes 1–2 days by carrier; a driver may deliver the same day if your car is the last one loaded. The car heads north-northwest and stays on Central time the whole way.
