Move farther with a team you can trust. We help customers relocate from Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C., Maryland, and surrounding areas based on route, availability, and moving requirements.
Long-Distance Moving Services from the DMV
Moving out of state is a different job than a local move — it can involve different pricing methods, delivery windows, and more advance planning around packing and storage. Haul Bros coordinates long-distance moves from Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland based on your specific route, move size, and timeline.
Packing and Storage Support
Full-home, partial, and fragile-item packing is available for long-distance moves, along with kitchen, office, electronics, and artwork packing. Storage-in-transit can bridge the gap when your move-out and move-in dates don't line up, or when you need temporary housing before your new home is ready.
Careful Planning for Every Move
Before your move, we review your addresses, dates, distance, home size, crew size, stairs, elevators, parking, specialty items, packing needs, and destination access. Protection confirmed in your estimate may include moving blankets, shrink wrap, furniture padding, dollies, floor protection, and organized loading and unloading.

Read the guideFrequently Asked Questions About Long-Distance Moving
How much does a long-distance move cost from Virginia?
Long-distance moving estimates commonly consider shipment weight, distance, access, and requested services. The final pricing method depends on the tariff and whether the estimate is binding or nonbinding. Request a written estimate based on your inventory and destination; local hourly rates should not be assumed to apply.
How long does a long-distance move take?
Delivery timing depends on the route, distance, scheduling, and services agreed for your move. Confirm your pickup date and delivery date or delivery window in writing before booking so you can plan access and travel.
Do you guarantee a specific delivery date?
Ask whether a fixed-date or expedited option is available for your route. Do not assume a delivery date is guaranteed unless the commitment, terms, and any additional cost are confirmed in writing.
What happens if my new home isn't ready when the movers arrive?
Storage-in-transit is available to hold your belongings temporarily between pickup and delivery when your move-out and move-in dates don't align — let us know in advance if this might apply to your move.
Do you move a piano or other specialty items long-distance?
Tell us about pianos, safes, gym equipment, artwork, and other specialty items before booking. Acceptance depends on size, weight, access, equipment, and route requirements. Any specialist handling or crating must be confirmed in your estimate.
Is packing included in a long-distance move, or is it extra?
Packing is typically a separate service. Full-home, partial, and fragile-item-only packing are all available and priced based on the scope you need.
Do you offer a military or PCS moving discount?
Yes. Eligible military families may receive a discount on qualifying services — ask about current eligibility and documentation requirements when booking.
Do you offer a student moving discount?
Yes. Eligible students may receive a discount on qualifying long-distance moves — mention your student status when requesting your estimate.
Can you move just a few large items instead of a full household?
Yes. Small long-distance moves covering select furniture, boxes, or a partial household are available — describe what you're moving and both addresses for an accurate quote.
How far in advance should I book a long-distance move?
As early as possible — ideally 4–8 weeks out. Long-distance moves require more route and scheduling coordination than local moves, and summer months and month-end dates book up fastest.
