Lee's Summit, MO → Yuma, AZ · Long-distance move
About 1,428 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,570–$8,290, delivery in 3–7 days, 213 carriers on the Lee's Summit side and 66 in Yuma.
Moving from Lee's Summit to Yuma is a long-distance move of roughly 1,428 road miles, heading west from Missouri to Arizona.
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 $5,570 to $8,290 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 25 hours (3 driving days).
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 66 around Yuma (57 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 Yuma.
Lee's Summit has a population of about 107,514 and Yuma about 105,227. Lee's Summit is considerably denser (1,582 people per square mile versus 792), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Arizona is a higher-cost state than Missouri, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 1,428 road miles (1,210 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 25 hours (3 driving days).
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.
Yes. Crossing from Missouri into Arizona 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 $2,070 to $2,920 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,290 to $3,370. 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 Lee's Summit–Yuma corridor.
