Fredericksburg, VA → Moreno Valley, CA · Cross-country move
About 2,620 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $8,780–$13,060, delivery in 7–14 days, 152 carriers on the Fredericksburg side and 861 in Moreno Valley.
Moving from Fredericksburg to Moreno Valley is a cross-country move of roughly 2,620 road miles, heading west from Virginia to California.
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 $8,780 to $13,060 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 7 to 14 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 45 hours (6 driving days).
On the Fredericksburg side there are 152 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (107 of them authorized for interstate work), and 861 around Moreno Valley (478 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 Moreno Valley.
Fredericksburg has a population of about 28,000 and Moreno Valley about 214,263. Moreno Valley is the denser city (4,067 people per square mile versus 2,678 in Fredericksburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. California is a higher-cost state than Virginia, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 2,620 road miles (2,220 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 45 hours (6 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 7 to 14 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 Virginia into California 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 $3,590 to $5,070 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,360 to $4,940. 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 Fredericksburg–Moreno Valley corridor.
