The route from Chicago, IL to Fairfax, VA covers roughly 689 miles by road, a east-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 $4,040 to $6,020 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 12 h 35 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 534 around Fairfax (383 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 Fairfax.
Chicago has a population of about 2.7 million and Fairfax about 25,000. Chicago is considerably denser (12,061 people per square mile versus 3,869), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.
