How USmove's interstate moving tools work
Tell us about your move
Home size, route, and move date — takes under a minute. The tool asks for the basics and nothing more. Plug in where you are leaving from, where you are headed, how much stuff you are bringing, and when you need to go. That is it. No lengthy questionnaires about room dimensions or itemized inventory lists. The algorithm matches your inputs against actual mover data and returns results fast enough that you can run multiple scenarios if your dates are flexible.
See the real numbers
Cost ranges and mover ratings, all sourced and linked — never invented. Every figure ties back to a real estimate, federal filing, or verified customer review. If a company shows a 4.2-star rating, you can click through and see where that number comes from. The same goes for price brackets. We do not smooth over bad reviews or inflate scores to make sponsors look better. What you see is what the data actually says, with breadcrumbs that let you check our work.
Compare and book with confidence
Verify any company's federal registration before you pay a deposit. Interstate movers must carry a USDOT number and active operating authority with FMCSA. It is a simple lookup that takes two minutes and can save you from a broker scam or a rogue operator. Ask for the number directly, then run it yourself on the FMCSA website. Do not take their word for it. A legitimate mover will not hesitate to give you this information. If they dodge the question or push you to lock in immediately, that is your signal to walk.

What an interstate move typically costs
Ranges by home size and distance tier — the same numbers used throughout this site, not a separate estimate. We do not bait you with one set of figures and then switch to another once you click deeper. The cost brackets you see in the calculator match what you will find in our state guides, route breakdowns, and cost methodology pages. This matters because moving pricing is already confusing enough without inconsistent benchmarks. You can cross-reference freely without wondering if the numbers changed behind the scenes.
| Home size | Short-distance | Medium-distance | Long-distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | $1,600–$2,200 | $1,900–$2,600 | $2,200–$3,000 |
| 1 Bedroom | $2,200–$2,800 | $2,600–$3,400 | $3,000–$4,000 |
| 2 Bedroom | $2,500–$4,200 | $3,000–$5,200 | $3,500–$6,200 |
| 3 Bedroom | $3,600–$5,800 | $4,300–$7,200 | $5,000–$8,500 |
| 4 Bedroom | $5,200–$6,900 | $6,500–$8,600 | $7,500–$10,000 |
| 5+ Bedroom | $6,900–$8,000 | $8,600–$10,000 | $10,000–$12,000+ |

Interstate moving trust & safety basics
How we evaluate interstate movers
We don't fabricate ratings or invent review counts. Every mover profile uses verified, real ratings and review counts, and strengths/weaknesses are drawn only from themes actually present in those reviews, including honest negative patterns where they exist. Where we can't verify a number directly (like a USDOT/MC registration), we link to the official FMCSA source instead of stating it as fact. Read the full methodology.
Interstate moving resources & guides
83 practical guides across 6 categories, for every stage of an interstate move. Some people need help choosing between binding and non-binding estimates. Others want a printable week-by-week checklist or advice on moving plants across state lines. The guides cover narrow questions like those alongside broader topics such as insurance valuation and claim filing. They are organized so you can jump to the exact problem in front of you instead of reading from start to finish.
Find interstate movers by state
Movers, cost, and route guides in one place for every state. Whether you are leaving California for Texas or relocating from Maine to Florida, you will find state-specific breakdowns that account for local regulations, typical route challenges, and regional pricing patterns. You do not need to piece together information from five different sites. The state pages connect directly to relevant cost data and vetted mover options for that origin-destination pair, so your research stays in one place from start to finish.
Frequently asked questions
We started with the 10 largest national interstate van lines by recognition and search volume — the companies people are most often actually comparing. We're expanding coverage over time; being covered here isn't an endorsement, and not being covered yet isn't a mark against a company.
Yes. Every rating, review count, and quoted review is pulled from that company's real Google Business Profile — we don't write, edit, or generate reviews. See the full methodology for exactly how.
USmove.org may earn a commission when you use certain links to moving companies or related services. This doesn't affect our reviews or rankings — the standard we hold every company to is the same regardless of any commercial relationship.
Cost figures are presented as ranges based on publicly understood interstate pricing structures (weight, distance, and service level), not as guaranteed quotes. Your actual price depends on your specific inventory, access, and timing — use the calculator as a planning starting point, then get written estimates.
Review data is a snapshot from the date shown on each mover profile, not a live feed. For the most current rating or registration status, use the direct links to Google Business Profile or FMCSA SAFER provided on each page.
