Reverse: Fairfax → College Station

The route from College Station, TX to Fairfax, VA covers roughly 1,436 miles by road, a northeast-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 $5,790 to $8,610 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 25 hours (3 driving days).

On the College Station side there are 110 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (35 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.

College Station has a population of about 127,472 and Fairfax about 25,000. Fairfax is the denser city (3,869 people per square mile versus 2,354 in College Station), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Virginia does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from College Station to Fairfax?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,320 to $3,450 for a studio, $3,470 to $5,170 for a one-bedroom, $5,790 to $8,610 for a two-bedroom, $9,260 to $13,780 for a three-bedroom and $12,740 to $18,950 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Fairfax from College Station?

About 1,436 road miles (1,217 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 25 hours (3 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Texas into Virginia 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for College Station to Fairfax?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,080 to $2,930 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,300 to $3,380. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 College Station–Fairfax corridor.
