Richmond sits about 761 miles southeast of Aurora, which makes this an interstate relocation from Illinois to Virginia that most movers classify as a long-distance 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 $4,230 to $6,300 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 13 h 49 min.
On the Aurora side there are 824 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (675 of them authorized for interstate work), and 400 around Richmond (215 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 Richmond.
Aurora has a population of about 181,505 and Richmond about 237,257. The two cities have comparable density (4,012 and 3,783 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.
