Phoenix AZ Long Distance Moving Company

Arizona is one of the top states people are moving to, but for all its appeal, there may be many reasons you’re ready to leave Phoenix. Maybe you want to stay in AZ but you’re moving to Tucson, the most common move destination from Phoenix, for job opportunities, to be closer to family, or for a different lifestyle. If you’re leaving the state, you may be considering Seattle, Dallas, or another metro area for work, a different climate, or less urban sprawl.
No matter where you’re moving, a long distance or interstate move is one of the most stressful things you will ever do. Why do it alone? A professional long distance moving company in Phoenix makes your relocation easier than you imagined possible with the logistics, heavy lifting, packing, and transportation handled by experts.
What Is a Phoenix Long Distance Move?
When hiring Phoenix long-distance movers, you may notice a lot of terms used to describe different moving services. It’s important to understand how moves are defined because it impacts not only the pricing but what you need to look for in a mover.
Local moves are usually within 60 or so miles of the origin. At Mentors Moving & Storage, we consider moves within Maricopa County and North Pinal County to be local moves. A relocation to the suburbs of Phoenix from the city would be local. If you’re moving outside the area, you will need a long-distance moving company. For instance, a move from Phoenix to Portland would need long distance or out-of-state movers.
What’s the difference between a local and long distance move? You can expect different pricing. Local moves usually have hourly mover rates while long distance relocations typically have flat-rate prices.
Long-distance moves can be broken down into other types:
An interstate move is a relocation across state lines, no matter the total distance. You will need a licensed interstate moving company with a USDOT number to handle your move as these moves are federally regulated – even if your move is just a few miles total!
An intrastate move is a relocation within the same state but outside the local move radius. Moving from Phoenix to Tucson is an example of an intrastate move.
A cross country move can refer to a move from one region to another, across multiple state lines, or from the West to East Coast. A Phoenix to Chicago move would be considered cross country.
