Reverse: Grand Junction → Lee's Summit

Moving from Lee's Summit to Grand Junction is a long-distance move of roughly 898 road miles, heading west from Missouri to Colorado.

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 $4,410 to $6,570 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 16 h 11 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 67 around Grand Junction (30 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 Grand Junction.

Lee's Summit has a population of about 107,514 and Grand Junction about 70,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,582 and 1,614 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Colorado is a higher-cost state than Missouri, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,770 to $2,630 for a studio, $2,650 to $3,940 for a one-bedroom, $4,410 to $6,570 for a two-bedroom, $7,060 to $10,510 for a three-bedroom and $9,710 to $14,450 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Grand Junction from Lee's Summit?

About 898 road miles (761 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 16 h 11 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Missouri into Colorado 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 Grand Junction?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,220 to $1,730 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,820 to $2,680. 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–Grand Junction corridor.
