What changes the price
- Weight. Interstate movers price mostly by how much your belongings weigh and how far they go.
- Season. May to September is peak season and costs the most. October to April is usually cheaper.
- Timing. Weekdays and mid-month dates cost less than weekends and month-end. Booking 6 to 8 weeks ahead can save 10 to 20%.
- Extras. Packing, stairs, long carries from the truck, shuttle trucks and heavy items like pianos or safes add to the bill.

Moving to Los Angeles: what to know
Some Los Angeles streets need a temporary parking permit for a moving truck, and traffic can stretch a load-out day. Book a weekday morning start if you can.
Leaving Las Vegas
Nevada has no state income tax. Summer heat is intense, so early-morning moves are easier on your crew and your belongings.
Before you book a mover
- Check the mover’s USDOT number on the FMCSA website. Interstate movers must have one.
- Ask for an in-home or video survey, not a phone guess. Estimates based on a real look at your home are more accurate.
- Ask for a binding or not-to-exceed estimate so the price can’t jump on delivery day.
- Interstate movers must give you the FMCSA booklet “Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move”. If they don’t, walk away.
- Never pay a large deposit in cash. A big upfront demand is a common sign of a moving scam.
