How We Handle a 1,400-Mile Move

Packing for a Multi-Day Trip

Boxes ride for days on a Texas move, so packing matters more than on a short run. Our packing services wrap fragile items, electronics, and furniture for the distance.

Storage in Lorton

If your Texas closing or lease starts after you leave Virginia, our warehouse storage holds your goods until you are ready for delivery.

Heavy and Valuable Items

We move pianos, gun safes, and antiques as part of your shipment. Plan to transport firearms yourself and follow each state’s laws along the route.

Help With a DIY Move

Driving a rental truck to Texas yourself? Our labor-only movers load it in Northern Virginia so the weight is packed tight for the long drive.

What It Costs to Move From Virginia to Texas

A full-service move from Virginia to Texas typically costs $1,240 to $9,320, depending on home size, based on recent quotes collected by moveBuddha. Their data puts the average route at 1,406 miles. These are market figures, not our rates. We price your move from a free estimate of your actual household.

Home size Full-service movers Moving container Rental truck
Studio or 1 bedroom $1,240 to $4,610 $1,050 to $2,360 $870 to $1,670
2 to 3 bedrooms $2,860 to $6,240 $1,810 to $3,840 $1,010 to $2,090
4 or more bedrooms $5,210 to $9,320 $2,410 to $4,820 $1,240 to $2,480

At this distance, shipment weight drives the price more than anything else. Every piece of furniture you sell or donate before the estimate comes off the bill. Our downsizing guide walks through it room by room.
