What is the Average Delivery Time for a Cross Country Move?

The average delivery time for a cross country move can take a few days to a few weeks. It all depends on several factors – mainly the distance of the move and the amount of stuff you’re hauling, but also the availability of your movers and the route they take.

Distance ETA
1500 miles 4-10 days
2000 miles 5-14 days
2500 miles 6-21 days
3000+ miles 7-21 days

Think a smaller house means a shorter wait? Think again. Most people don’t know this, but movers don’t like to send half-empty trucks from point A to point B. You may have to wait for them to fill the truck up with someone else’s stuff before they send it your way.
