The route from Annapolis, MD to Billings, MT covers roughly 1,993 miles by road, a northwest-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 $6,970 to $10,370 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 35 hours (4 driving days).

On the Annapolis side there are 199 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (100 of them authorized for interstate work), and 33 around Billings (28 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 Billings.

Annapolis has a population of about 41,000 and Billings about 121,239. Annapolis is considerably denser (5,664 people per square mile versus 2,614), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Montana than in Maryland, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Tips for this move

Compare a full-service van line against a container service; for a small household the container often wins.
Ask about consolidated versus dedicated truck options—dedicated is faster but costs more.
Read the FMCSA 'Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move' booklet the carrier must provide.
Ship the car separately if you plan to fly; auto transport is priced by the mile like household goods.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Annapolis to Billings?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,790 to $4,150 for a studio, $4,180 to $6,220 for a one-bedroom, $6,970 to $10,370 for a two-bedroom, $11,160 to $16,600 for a three-bedroom and $15,340 to $22,820 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Billings from Annapolis?

About 1,993 road miles (1,689 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 35 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Maryland into Montana 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Annapolis to Billings?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,800 to $3,950 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,800 to $4,120. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Annapolis–Billings corridor.
