What Is Interstate Moving?
Interstate moving means relocating from one state to another. A move from Portland to California, Texas, Washington, or anywhere across the country crosses state lines. That’s important because federal rules apply, and not all carriers can do that. Our team and trucks are certified for interstate moving under U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) standards.
This isn’t just a long day’s drive. We plan your packing, your route, your delivery window, and your transport so your stuff moves safely across state borders.

How Much Does Interstate Moving Cost in Portland?
People ask this all the time and there’s no single number because every move is different. Cost depends on:
-
Where you’re leaving and where you’re headed
-
How much stuff you have
-
Whether you want full packing help
-
Specialty moves (pianos, antiques)
-
Storage needs
Honest talk: a DIY rental truck costs less upfront, but the hidden fees, risk of damage, and stress add up fast. With us, you get transparent pricing, written estimates, and a team that shows up when promised.
Experts say long distance moves can range widely based on distance and services chosen, so getting multiple written estimates is key.
