Lewisville, TX → Richmond, VA · Long-distance move
About 1,345 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,560–$8,270, delivery in 3–7 days, 655 carriers on the Lewisville side and 400 in Richmond.
Richmond sits about 1,345 miles east of Lewisville, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Virginia 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 $5,560 to $8,270 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 23 h 53 min.
On the Lewisville side there are 655 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (262 of them authorized for interstate work), and 400 around Richmond (215 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 Richmond.
Lewisville has a population of about 139,006 and Richmond about 237,257. The two cities have comparable density (3,022 and 3,783 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Virginia does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,345 road miles (1,140 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 23 h 53 min.
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 Texas into Virginia 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 $1,830 to $2,590 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,220 to $3,270. 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 Lewisville–Richmond corridor.
