Reverse: Cedar Rapids → Little Rock

The route from Little Rock, AR to Cedar Rapids, IA covers roughly 592 miles by road, a north-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $3,300 to $4,920 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 10 h 54 min.

On the Little Rock side there are 165 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (104 of them authorized for interstate work), and 96 around Cedar Rapids (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 Cedar Rapids.

Little Rock has a population of about 206,427 and Cedar Rapids about 137,935. The two cities have comparable density (1,688 and 1,910 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Little Rock to Cedar Rapids?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,320 to $1,970 for a studio, $1,980 to $2,950 for a one-bedroom, $3,300 to $4,920 for a two-bedroom, $5,290 to $7,860 for a three-bedroom and $7,270 to $10,810 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Cedar Rapids from Little Rock?

About 592 road miles (502 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 10 h 54 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 Arkansas into Iowa 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 Little Rock to Cedar Rapids?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $910 to $1,280 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,550 to $2,280. 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 Little Rock–Cedar Rapids corridor.
