Blacksburg, VA → Midland, TX · Cross-country move
About 1,512 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,970–$8,880, delivery in 5–10 days, 80 carriers on the Blacksburg side and 94 in Midland.
Midland sits about 1,512 miles west of Blacksburg, which makes this an interstate relocation from Virginia to Texas 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 $5,970 to $8,880 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 Blacksburg side there are 80 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (61 of them authorized for interstate work), and 94 around Midland (46 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 Midland.
Blacksburg has a population of about 45,000 and Midland about 147,615. The two cities have comparable density (2,264 and 1,755 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 1,512 road miles (1,281 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 Virginia into Texas 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 $2,150 to $3,040 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,370 to $3,480. 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 Blacksburg–Midland corridor.
