How Much Does it Cost to Hire Long Distance Movers in Los Angeles?
A long distance move in Los Angeles is going to set you back between $1,500 and $8,700. It’s a pretty big window, but it all depends on how much you’re hauling, and how far you’re traveling.
In the world of long distance moving, the two biggest factors behind your price are always going to be your miles and your cubic feet (or pounds, depending on who you’re working with). Sure, there may be extra fees for packing, elevators, or shuttle trucks, but the distance traveled and the size of your move are the main factors.
If you’re just moving a studio apartment across the state line, your move will be a lot cheaper than moving a five-bedroom home from Beverly Hills to the Hamptons. Take a look at this table to get an idea of how much you may end up paying for your LA move:
| Distance | 1 Bedroom | 2 – 3 Bedroom | 4 – 5 Bedroom |
| 100 miles | $1200 – $1500 | $1550 – $2000 | $2100 – $2500 |
| 250 miles | $1600 – $2000 | $2100 – $2500 | $2600 – $3000 |
| 1000 miles+ | $2800 – $3000 | $3100 – $3500 | $3600 – $4000 |
| 2500 miles+ | $3100 – $3500 | $3600 – $4500 | $8700+ |
Los Angeles Long Distance Moving FAQs
What is the cheapest option for moving long distances?
The cheapest option for a long distance move is always going to be a complete DIY job. Is it the SMARTEST option? That one’s up for debate. After you pay for gas, food, and lodging (and we all know how expensive gas, food, and lodging gets in LA), your savings may not be as huge as you thought. And if you have to skip work (and paychecks) to move? Forget it. Hiring the pros is worth the extra bucks.
What is considered long distance for a moving company?
Industry standard for a long distance move is anything over 100 miles or across state lines. If you’re moving within the same state and within a 100 mile radius, you’re looking at a local move, so you’ll have to pay per mover, per hour.
A long distance move is charged based on distance and volume. Long distance movers also have to be federally licensed and certified to haul all your stuff.
Look for a Department of Transportation (DOT) number and a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Association (FMCSA) number to make sure you’re dealing with a legit long distance moving company.

What are the Best Neighborhoods in Los Angeles?
LA is a huge city, and it’s broken down into a lot of smaller cities just to keep things manageable. Your favorite will really depend on what you’re looking for, and where you’re working.
- Downtown LA is mainly industrial warehouses, big businesses, and homeless camps.
- Hollywood is mainly weirdos, tourist traps, and homeless camps.
- The Valley is mainly the entertainment industry, the ADULT entertainment industry, and homeless camps.
- West LA is mainly airports, sociopathic nu-yuppies, and homeless camps.
- East LA es usualmente taquerías, hispanohablantes, y vagabundos.
No matter what you’re looking for, odds are you’ll find it in LA – and there’ll be a homeless camp nearby, too!
What should you know before moving to LA?
Los Angeles is a wild place, and if you’re moving in, you’re going to be going in blind – no matter how many times you’ve visited, and no matter how much you’ve researched the city on the internet.
The best way to prepare for your big LA move is to look at a map, and try to memorize the main highways. You don’t need to remember ALL of them, but a few of the major north-south and east-west routes are good to know, like the 405, the 710, the 110, and the 10.
How long does a long distance move take?
A long distance move can take anywhere from 2 – 21 days. Like the price, the overall duration depends on how far you’re traveling and how much you’re hauling.
Federal law limits the distance your driver can go each day. Drivers can’t clock more than 400 miles of interstate travel per day, so that automatically adds days to your schedule.
Additionally, if you have a small move – say, a studio or a one-bedroom apartment – your movers will bundle it together with other moves in the same truck.
Don’t worry – everything will be kept safe, secure, and separated. But since moving companies don’t like sending half-empty trucks all over the place, it’s a common practice to combine moves for greater efficiency. Unfortunately, this means you’ll deal with more delays for pickups and dropoffs along the way.
