Annapolis, MD → Dodge City, KS · Cross-country move
About 1,502 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,950–$8,860, delivery in 5–10 days, 199 carriers on the Annapolis side and 10 in Dodge City.
Dodge City sits about 1,502 miles west of Annapolis, which makes this an interstate relocation from Maryland to Kansas 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 $5,950 to $8,860 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 26 hours (3 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 10 around Dodge City (7 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 Dodge City.
Annapolis has a population of about 41,000 and Dodge City about 28,000. Annapolis is considerably denser (5,664 people per square mile versus 1,885), 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 Kansas than in Maryland, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 1,502 road miles (1,273 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 26 hours (3 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 Maryland into Kansas 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 $2,140 to $3,030 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,360 to $3,470. 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 Annapolis–Dodge City corridor.
