Overland Park, KS → Hartford, CT · Long-distance move
About 1,384 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,710–$8,500, delivery in 3–7 days, 400 carriers on the Overland Park side and 350 in Hartford.
Moving from Overland Park to Hartford is a long-distance move of roughly 1,384 road miles, heading east from Kansas to Connecticut.
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 $5,710 to $8,500 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 24 hours (3 driving days).
On the Overland Park side there are 400 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (322 of them authorized for interstate work), and 350 around Hartford (246 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 Hartford.
Overland Park has a population of about 203,677 and Hartford about 121,981. Hartford is the denser city (6,957 people per square mile versus 2,623 in Overland Park), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Connecticut is a higher-cost state than Kansas, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 1,384 road miles (1,173 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 24 hours (3 driving days).
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.
Yes. Crossing from Kansas 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 $2,020 to $2,850 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,260 to $3,320. 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 Overland Park–Hartford corridor.
