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.

Leaving Salt Lake City

Salt Lake City sits at about 4,200 feet. Winter snow can slow mountain routes into the city, so allow extra delivery time from November to March.

Before you book a mover

  1. Check the mover’s USDOT number on the FMCSA website. Interstate movers must have one.
  2. Ask for an in-home or video survey, not a phone guess. Estimates based on a real look at your home are more accurate.
  3. Ask for a binding or not-to-exceed estimate so the price can’t jump on delivery day.
  4. Interstate movers must give you the FMCSA booklet “Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move”. If they don’t, walk away.
  5. Never pay a large deposit in cash. A big upfront demand is a common sign of a moving scam.
