Reverse: Lawrence → St. George

Moving from St. George to Lawrence is a long-distance move of roughly 1,184 road miles, heading east from Utah to Kansas.

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 $4,950 to $7,370 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 21 h 7 min.

On the St. George side there are 70 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (45 of them authorized for interstate work), and 17 around Lawrence (14 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 Lawrence.

St. George has a population of about 108,713 and Lawrence about 95,000. Lawrence is the denser city (2,772 people per square mile versus 1,215 in St. George), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Labor and living costs run lower in Kansas than in Utah, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from St. George to Lawrence?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,980 to $2,950 for a studio, $2,970 to $4,420 for a one-bedroom, $4,950 to $7,370 for a two-bedroom, $7,920 to $11,790 for a three-bedroom and $10,890 to $16,210 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lawrence from St. George?

About 1,184 road miles (1,004 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 7 min.

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 Utah into Kansas 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 St. George to Lawrence?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,670 to $2,350 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,080 to $3,050. 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 St. George–Lawrence corridor.
