Cape Girardeau sits about 1,172 miles northwest of Key West, which makes this an interstate relocation from Florida to Missouri that most movers classify as a 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 $4,950 to $7,360 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 20 h 54 min.
On the Key West side there are 7 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (2 of them authorized for interstate work), and 58 around Cape Girardeau (45 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 Cape Girardeau.
Key West has a population of about 25,000 and Cape Girardeau about 40,000. Key West is considerably denser (4,723 people per square mile versus 1,351), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Missouri than in Florida, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that Missouri does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
