Suffolk, VA → Monroe, LA · Long-distance move
About 1,089 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,800–$7,130, delivery in 3–7 days, 101 carriers on the Suffolk side and 49 in Monroe.
The route from Suffolk, VA to Monroe, LA covers roughly 1,089 miles by road, a west-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 $4,800 to $7,130 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 19 h 29 min.
On the Suffolk side there are 101 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (62 of them authorized for interstate work), and 49 around Monroe (26 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 Monroe.
Suffolk has a population of about 104,699 and Monroe about 46,000. Monroe is the denser city (1,604 people per square mile versus 236 in Suffolk), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Labor and living costs run lower in Louisiana than in Virginia, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 1,089 road miles (923 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 19 h 29 min.
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.
Yes. Crossing from Virginia into Louisiana 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 $1,570 to $2,210 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,990 to $2,930. 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 Suffolk–Monroe corridor.
