Long Distance Moves

Moves across state lines within the continental United States are considered long distance, which are referred to as 'interstate'. Our dedicated movers are trained professionals who take the utmost care in handling your belongings. Your furniture will be wrapped for protection before leaving your home and loaded onto the moving truck.

There is never a charge for the protective padded blankets, floor runners, tape and stretch wrap we utilize as a courtesy, when needed. In addition, standard (non-customized) furniture will be disassembled, when required, to ensure its safe arrival.

The exact volume of your shipment is determined at the time of pick-up, unless you were provided earlier with a binding quote; including accessorized services and backed up with a complete inventory list.

Your scheduled pick-up date and time is guaranteed and the delivery schedule is flexible on long distance moves, based on your needs. We also offer a straight delivery service option to most points within the continental United States. In this case, pick-up and delivery dates are guaranteed.

Let's Get Started

To start your move, the assigned, uniformed Regions crew will arrive at your home, where the foreman will introduce himself and thoroughly inspect your home and all the goods to be loaded. Once evaluated, all the listed items will be completely wrapped, labeled, inventoried and loaded onto the truck. Any of the client's additional items will be inspected and quoted by the foreman, to become part of the total load moved.

The next day, while your goods are in-transit, you will receive a phone call from our long distance dispatch team to confirm your 'ready date.' At that time, feel free to clarify any potential concerns or questions. We will contact you every 48-72 hours regarding the delivery schedule's progress. While your goods are on the road, be assured you'll be kept informed regularly. 12-24 hours before arrival at your door, you’ll receive a call from the driver on the approximate delivery-time window.

Upon arrival, the crew will begin efficiently unload your goods and place everything in the desired location (home or office). Every single item will be re-inventoried by the driver to ensure you've received all your goods, with your participation.

To complete the move, the crew will un wrap goods from their protective materials and reassemble items for placement, with your guidance.

Long distance moving costs are calculated by the following factors:

  • A flexible (economic) or straight delivery schedule.
  • Weight or cubic foot of your total shipment and the zip code of your destination.
  • Optional services chosen, such as packing and unpacking.
  • Whether items are stored mid-transit or not.
  • Extra stops, stairs carries above 2nd floor and long carries above 75ft. from our truck to your door.
  • The need for a small shuttle truck in addition to the tractor trailer.

The transportation charges are based entirely on the shipped items and are regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation. As an insured carrier, you may check our performance records with the U.S. Dept. of Transportation or local Better Business Bureau.

The industry standard equations for comparing weight to cubic feet estimates are:

  • Divide the total weight by seven (7) for the total cubic feet.
  • Multiply the cubic feet by seven (7) for the total weight.
