Reverse: Inglewood → Richmond

Inglewood sits about 420 miles southeast of Richmond, so this is an in-state move 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 $3,870 to $5,750 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 57 min.

On the Richmond side there are 252 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (86 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,198 around Inglewood (507 interstate). For an in-state 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 Inglewood.

Richmond has a population of about 114,861 and Inglewood about 101,662. Inglewood is the denser city (11,842 people per square mile versus 3,869 in Richmond), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Richmond to Inglewood?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,550 to $2,300 for a studio, $2,320 to $3,450 for a one-bedroom, $3,870 to $5,750 for a two-bedroom, $6,190 to $9,210 for a three-bedroom and $8,510 to $12,660 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Inglewood from Richmond?

About 420 road miles (356 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 7 h 57 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Richmond and Inglewood are in California, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Richmond to Inglewood?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $580 to $820 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,390 to $2,050. 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 Richmond–Inglewood corridor.
