Norfolk, VA → Norwalk, CT · Regional long-distance move
About 384 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,220–$4,780, delivery in 1–3 days, 336 carriers on the Norfolk side and 395 in Norwalk.
Norwalk sits about 384 miles northeast of Norfolk, which makes this an interstate relocation from Virginia to Connecticut that most movers classify as a regional 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 $3,220 to $4,780 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 7 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 395 around Norwalk (163 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 Norwalk.
Norfolk has a population of about 231,013 and Norwalk about 92,000. The two cities have comparable density (4,465 and 3,984 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 384 road miles (326 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 7 h 19 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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.
Yes. Crossing from Virginia into Connecticut 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $540 to $770 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,360 to $2,000. 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.
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 Norfolk–Norwalk corridor.
