Lafayette sits about 732 miles northwest of Norfolk, which makes this an interstate relocation from Virginia to Indiana 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 $3,940 to $5,860 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 13 h 19 min.
On the Norfolk side there are 336 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (197 of them authorized for interstate work), and 55 around Lafayette (44 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 Lafayette.
Norfolk has a population of about 231,013 and Lafayette about 72,000. Norfolk is considerably denser (4,465 people per square mile versus 2,409), 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 Indiana than in Virginia, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.
