Reverse: Lee's Summit → Overland Park

Moving from Overland Park to Lee's Summit is a local move of roughly 20 road miles, heading east from Kansas to Missouri.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 38 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,030 and $1,540, before packing or storage.

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 213 around Lee's Summit (168 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 Lee's Summit.

Overland Park has a population of about 203,677 and Lee's Summit about 107,514. Overland Park is considerably denser (2,623 people per square mile versus 1,582), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Overland Park to Lee's Summit?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $540 to $800 for a studio, $640 to $950 for a one-bedroom, $1,030 to $1,540 for a two-bedroom, $1,620 to $2,410 for a three-bedroom and $2,440 to $3,640 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lee's Summit from Overland Park?

About 20 road miles (17 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 38 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Kansas into Missouri 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 Overland Park to Lee's Summit?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $170 to $240 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,040 to $1,530. 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 Overland Park–Lee's Summit corridor.
