Concord, NC → Independence, MO · Long-distance move
About 939 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,270–$6,350, delivery in 2–5 days, 441 carriers on the Concord side and 214 in Independence.
Independence sits about 939 miles northwest of Concord, which makes this an interstate relocation from North Carolina to Missouri 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 $4,270 to $6,350 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 16 h 53 min.
On the Concord side there are 441 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (326 of them authorized for interstate work), and 214 around Independence (159 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 Independence.
Concord has a population of about 114,598 and Independence about 121,675. The two cities have comparable density (1,657 and 1,577 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 939 road miles (796 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 16 h 53 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 North Carolina into Missouri 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 $1,410 to $2,000 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,860 to $2,730. 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 Concord–Independence corridor.
