Moving from Lee's Summit to Billings is a long-distance move of roughly 1,019 road miles, heading northwest from Missouri to Montana.

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 $4,530 to $6,740 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 18 h 16 min.

On the Lee's Summit side there are 213 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (168 of them authorized for interstate work), and 33 around Billings (28 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 Billings.

Lee's Summit has a population of about 107,514 and Billings about 121,239. Billings is the denser city (2,614 people per square mile versus 1,582 in Lee's Summit), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Lee's Summit to Billings?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,810 to $2,700 for a studio, $2,720 to $4,040 for a one-bedroom, $4,530 to $6,740 for a two-bedroom, $7,250 to $10,780 for a three-bedroom and $9,970 to $14,830 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Billings from Lee's Summit?

About 1,019 road miles (863 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 18 h 16 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Missouri into Montana 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Lee's Summit to Billings?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,500 to $2,110 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,930 to $2,840. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Lee's Summit–Billings corridor.
