The route from Newport News, VA to McAllen, TX covers roughly 1,742 miles by road, a southwest-bound trip that falls into the cross-country 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 $6,340 to $9,430 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 30 hours (4 driving days).
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 357 around McAllen (213 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 McAllen.
Newport News has a population of about 183,230 and McAllen about 150,640. The two cities have comparable density (2,699 and 2,283 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.
