Blacksburg sits about 591 miles southeast of Chicago, 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 $3,790 to $5,640 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 10 h 53 min.
On the Chicago side there are 2,923 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (2,209 of them authorized for interstate work), and 80 around Blacksburg (61 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 Blacksburg.
Chicago has a population of about 2.7 million and Blacksburg about 45,000. Chicago is considerably denser (12,061 people per square mile versus 2,264), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.
