Reverse: Newport News → Sherman

The route from Sherman, TX to Newport News, VA covers roughly 1,363 miles by road, a east-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $5,610 to $8,340 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 Sherman side there are 41 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (22 of them authorized for interstate work), and 168 around Newport News (89 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 Newport News.

Sherman has a population of about 50,000 and Newport News about 183,230. Newport News is the denser city (2,699 people per square mile versus 940 in Sherman), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Virginia does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Sherman to Newport News?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,240 to $3,340 for a studio, $3,360 to $5,000 for a one-bedroom, $5,610 to $8,340 for a two-bedroom, $8,970 to $13,350 for a three-bedroom and $12,330 to $18,350 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Newport News from Sherman?

About 1,363 road miles (1,155 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 24 hours (3 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Texas into Virginia 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 Sherman to Newport News?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,000 to $2,820 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,240 to $3,290. 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 Sherman–Newport News corridor.
