Fredericksburg, VA → Waterbury, CT · Regional long-distance move
About 385 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,220–$4,790, delivery in 1–3 days, 152 carriers on the Fredericksburg side and 170 in Waterbury.
Moving from Fredericksburg to Waterbury is a regional long-distance move of roughly 385 road miles, heading northeast from Virginia to Connecticut.
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 $3,220 to $4,790 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 7 h 20 min.
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 170 around Waterbury (99 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 Waterbury.
Fredericksburg has a population of about 28,000 and Waterbury about 115,771. Waterbury is the denser city (4,014 people per square mile versus 2,678 in Fredericksburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Connecticut 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 $550 to $770 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,360 to $2,010. 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–Waterbury corridor.
