Springfield, MO → Reno, NV · Cross-country move
About 1,702 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,150–$9,150, delivery in 5–10 days, 135 carriers on the Springfield side and 81 in Reno.
The route from Springfield, MO to Reno, NV covers roughly 1,702 miles by road, a west-bound trip that falls into the cross-country 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 $6,150 to $9,150 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 30 hours (4 driving days).
On the Springfield side there are 135 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (106 of them authorized for interstate work), and 81 around Reno (55 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 Reno.
Springfield has a population of about 169,847 and Reno about 283,621. The two cities have comparable density (2,053 and 2,428 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Nevada is a higher-cost state than Missouri, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Nevada levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 1,702 road miles (1,442 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 30 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 Missouri into Nevada 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 $2,350 to $3,320 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,540 to $3,730. 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 Springfield–Reno corridor.
