Independence to Omaha on I-29
The Omaha lane heads due north on I-29, passing through St. Joseph, Missouri before crossing into Nebraska. It’s one of our shorter long-haul routes by drive time — 185 miles and about 3 hours — so loading and delivery usually happen inside the same day.

What determines where you land in that range
A studio or one-bedroom sits at the low end; a full house with a piano or gun safe adds the $150-$300 rigging fee on top. Packing materials and labor are quoted separately if you want us to pack instead of just load — nothing gets added to the invoice that wasn’t on the written quote first.
Same crew, start to finish
Lead crew chief Jamal Whitfield runs the long-haul lanes personally: the crew that loads your Independence home is the crew that unloads it in Omaha, not a different truck picking up where another left off.
- $150 refundable deposit holds your date, credited to the final invoice
- Full refund if you cancel 72+ hours before move day
- Flat rate confirmed in writing, with no fuel or mileage surcharge for the drive north
