Reverse: Lee's Summit → Newport News

Lee's Summit sits about 1,156 miles west of Newport News, which makes this an interstate relocation from Virginia to Missouri 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 $4,980 to $7,420 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 20 h 38 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 213 around Lee's Summit (168 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 Lee's Summit.

Newport News has a population of about 183,230 and Lee's Summit about 107,514. Newport News is considerably denser (2,699 people per square mile versus 1,582), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Missouri than in Virginia, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Tips for this move

Declutter first: long-haul pricing is by weight, so every hundred pounds you sell or donate saves money.
Check whether a shuttle truck is needed in Lee's Summit if a 53-foot trailer cannot reach your street.
Keep vehicle titles, passports and prescriptions with you; movers cannot carry some items at all.
Insist on a binding or binding-not-to-exceed estimate after an in-home or video survey.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Newport News to Lee's Summit?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,990 to $2,970 for a studio, $2,990 to $4,450 for a one-bedroom, $4,980 to $7,420 for a two-bedroom, $7,980 to $11,870 for a three-bedroom and $10,970 to $16,320 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lee's Summit from Newport News?

About 1,156 road miles (979 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 20 h 38 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Virginia into Missouri 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 Newport News to Lee's Summit?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,640 to $2,310 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,050 to $3,020. 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 Newport News–Lee's Summit corridor.
