Alexandria, VA → Casper, WY · Cross-country move
About 1,824 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,470–$9,630, delivery in 5–10 days, 1,203 carriers on the Alexandria side and 25 in Casper.
Casper sits about 1,824 miles west of Alexandria, which makes this an interstate relocation from Virginia to Wyoming that most movers classify as a cross-country move.
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 $6,470 to $9,630 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 32 hours (4 driving days).
On the Alexandria side there are 1,203 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (740 of them authorized for interstate work), and 25 around Casper (14 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 Casper.
Alexandria has a population of about 160,662 and Casper about 59,000. Alexandria is considerably denser (10,702 people per square mile versus 2,207), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Wyoming levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 1,824 road miles (1,546 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 32 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 Virginia into Wyoming 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 $2,620 to $3,700 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,650 to $3,890. 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 Alexandria–Casper corridor.
