Moving from Newport News to Lakewood is a regional long-distance move of roughly 287 road miles, heading northeast from Virginia to New Jersey.
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 $2,880 to $4,280 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 5 h 39 min.
On the Newport News side there are 168 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (89 of them authorized for interstate work), and 171 around Lakewood (91 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 Lakewood.
Newport News has a population of about 183,230 and Lakewood about 143,765. Lakewood is the denser city (5,472 people per square mile versus 2,699 in Newport News), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New Jersey is a higher-cost state than Virginia, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
