Harrisonburg, VA → Chicago, IL · Long-distance move
About 615 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,850–$5,730, delivery in 2–5 days, 71 carriers on the Harrisonburg side and 2,923 in Chicago.
Moving from Harrisonburg to Chicago is a long-distance move of roughly 615 road miles, heading northwest from Virginia to Illinois.
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 $3,850 to $5,730 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 11 h 18 min.
On the Harrisonburg side there are 71 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (53 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,923 around Chicago (2,209 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 Chicago.
Harrisonburg has a population of about 52,000 and Chicago about 2.7 million. Chicago is the denser city (12,061 people per square mile versus 2,989 in Harrisonburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

About 615 road miles (521 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 11 h 18 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 Virginia into Illinois 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 $930 to $1,320 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,570 to $2,310. 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 Harrisonburg–Chicago corridor.
