Moving to or from West Virginia
Pittsburgh, Washington and Columbus are the main regional lanes. Longer moves head to the Carolinas and Florida.
Terrain is the constraint that surprises people. Steep, narrow mountain roads and long private driveways frequently mean a shuttle truck is the only way to complete the delivery.
Whether the job stays inside West Virginia or crosses state lines, the same company handles it end to end. United Relocation is an FMCSA-authorized motor carrier — we are not passing your shipment to whichever crew happens to bid on it.

Moving in West Virginia: common questions
What does a move from West Virginia depend on?
Weight and distance first — Cincinnati, OH is about 150 miles out, Louisville, KY about 240, and that gap alone changes the job. Steep mountain roads and long private driveways mean a shuttle on a large share of jobs. Our published starting rates give you a floor — $250 an hour on a local move, from $1,800 on a long haul — and the number that binds is a written estimate against your actual inventory, which is free.
Which cities in West Virginia do you serve?
Charleston is the largest market in the state at roughly 51,000 people, and we also run crews in Huntington. Smaller towns are covered too, though rural addresses sometimes need a shuttle from a smaller truck.
How long does a move out of West Virginia take?
Inside West Virginia, normally loaded and delivered the same day. Interstate, distance sets it: Cincinnati, OH at 150 miles lands in a day, Louisville, KY at 240 miles takes longer. Summer is the practical season; winter road conditions are the limiting factor.
