Reverse: Lee's Summit → Dallas

Moving from Dallas to Lee's Summit is a long-distance move of roughly 524 road miles, heading north from Texas to Missouri.

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 $3,300 to $4,920 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 9 h 44 min.

On the Dallas side there are 3,665 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (1,566 of them authorized for interstate work), and 213 around Lee's Summit (168 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 Lee's Summit.

Dallas has a population of about 1.3 million and Lee's Summit about 107,514. Dallas is considerably denser (3,841 people per square mile versus 1,582), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that Missouri 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 Dallas to Lee's Summit?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,320 to $1,970 for a studio, $1,980 to $2,950 for a one-bedroom, $3,300 to $4,920 for a two-bedroom, $5,290 to $7,870 for a three-bedroom and $7,270 to $10,820 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lee's Summit from Dallas?

About 524 road miles (444 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 9 h 44 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Texas 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Dallas to Lee's Summit?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $840 to $1,180 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,490 to $2,190. 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 Dallas–Lee's Summit corridor.
