The route from Billings, MT to Richmond, CA covers roughly 1,052 miles by road, a southwest-bound trip that falls into the long-distance 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 $5,350 to $7,950 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 18 h 50 min.
On the Billings side there are 33 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (28 of them authorized for interstate work), and 252 around Richmond (86 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.
Billings has a population of about 121,239 and Richmond about 114,861. Richmond is the denser city (3,869 people per square mile versus 2,614 in Billings), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. California is a higher-cost state than Montana, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
