Frederick, MD → Newport News, VA · Regional long-distance move
About 201 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,480–$3,680, delivery in 1–2 days, 300 carriers on the Frederick side and 168 in Newport News.
Newport News sits about 201 miles south of Frederick, which makes this an interstate relocation from Maryland to Virginia that most movers classify as a regional 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 $2,480 to $3,680 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 2 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 4 h 10 min.
On the Frederick side there are 300 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (201 of them authorized for interstate work), and 168 around Newport News (89 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 Newport News.
Frederick has a population of about 85,000 and Newport News about 183,230. The two cities have comparable density (3,262 and 2,699 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 201 road miles (170 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 4 h 10 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 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 Maryland 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $360 to $500 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,200 to $1,760. 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 Frederick–Newport News corridor.
