Reverse: Worcester → Newport News

Worcester sits about 516 miles northeast of Newport News, which makes this an interstate relocation from Virginia to Massachusetts 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 $3,850 to $5,730 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 9 h 36 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 226 around Worcester (135 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 Worcester.

Newport News has a population of about 183,230 and Worcester about 213,862. Worcester is the denser city (5,522 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. Massachusetts is a higher-cost state than Virginia, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Newport News to Worcester?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,540 to $2,290 for a studio, $2,310 to $3,440 for a one-bedroom, $3,850 to $5,730 for a two-bedroom, $6,160 to $9,160 for a three-bedroom and $8,470 to $12,600 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Worcester from Newport News?

About 516 road miles (438 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 9 h 36 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 Virginia into Massachusetts 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 Worcester?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $830 to $1,170 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,480 to $2,180. 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–Worcester corridor.
