Shipping a Car From Kansas to Virginia
Overland Park to Arlington is about 1,060 miles, east on I-70 and across western Maryland. Richmond is closer to 1,080, and Virginia Beach is around 1,190. From Wichita, add about 200 miles. It's three days of driving.
Northern Virginia's tech, policy, and contracting jobs draw KU and K-State grads every year, and Richmond pulls finance and healthcare transfers. We also ship for students at UVA and Virginia Tech, families heading to Virginia Beach, and Virginians moving to Johnson County for lower housing costs.

Pricing
How Much Does It Cost to Ship a Car From Kansas to Virginia?
Here's what moves the price between Kansas and Virginia.
Distance
Northern Virginia is about 1,060 miles from Kansas City. Virginia Beach is closer to 1,200.
Beltway Traffic
D.C.-area traffic is heavy. Early-morning and midday deliveries are easier to schedule.
Delivery Area
Suburbs are easy. Old Town Alexandria and dense apartment areas often need a meeting spot.
Open or Enclosed
Open is the standard. Enclosed is popular for nicer cars heading to Northern Virginia.
Vehicle Size
Pickups and full-size SUVs take more trailer space than sedans, so they cost more to ship.
Date Flexibility
A flexible window lets us catch a truck already heading east.

Before You Ship & After You Arrive
A few Virginia-specific things worth knowing.
Registering in Virginia
New residents have 30 days to title and register with the Virginia DMV. Virginia requires an annual safety inspection, plus emissions testing in Northern Virginia. Active-duty members may keep their home-state registration. Check dmv.virginia.gov for current requirements.

College Moves
Sending a car to UVA or Virginia Tech? Give us the move-in date and we'll plan around it.
Kansas Pickups
HOA truck rules in Overland Park, Olathe, and Leawood subdivisions, game-day traffic in Lawrence and Manhattan, tight older streets in Wichita's College Hill and Riverside, and long gravel section roads out west can keep a big carrier off your street. If so, the driver will set up a nearby meeting spot, usually a lot just off I-35, I-70, I-135, I-435, or the Kansas Turnpike.
