Are you planning on moving out of state or across the country? Your pockets may need to stretch as far as your new moving distance. The cost of moving out of state varies greatly and can be as low as $800 or as high as a whopping $10,000.

This variation in costs is entirely dependent on which services you decide to employ, such as professional moving services to pack and transport your belongings for you.

Before any large-scale move, you need to make a budget to account for any cost you anticipate. You can also use a moving calculator to help determine the costs. These budgeting measures can help you avoid moving mistakes before the big day.

Determine Your Budget

Once you determine your budget for moving, you can decide which route is best. When you begin determining your budget, here are some factors to keep in mind:

  • Mileage
  • Utilities
  • Weight
  • Packing supplies
  • Moving your vehicle(s)

The distance and weight costs will affect your fuel and truck rental costs.

Moving methods and how much they cost

Overall, the cost of moving to another state has a lot to do with the method you use to transport your belongings. You can use a full-service shipping company, rent a moving truck, or use a shipping container.

Moving with a moving company

If budget is not one of your top priorities, and you would like to have the easiest moving experience possible, consider using a moving company. The average cost of using a full-service moving company can be anywhere between $4,000-$10,000. If you’re moving from California to another state, make sure to pick a reliable long-distance moving company from California.

This price range varies depending on distance and weight. If you plan on having your car shipped using auto transport services from state to state, the average cost range is $500-$1,500. Driving your vehicle yourself is a more budget-friendly option, but it’s not the safest or the most practical option for a long-distance move.

Moving with a U-Haul truck

To rent a truck to move your belongings, you’re looking at a cost range from $1,200 to $2,100. These costs vary and depend mainly on mileage and the size of the truck you need. This cost is just for the truck rental and does not factor in the fuel costs.

If you want to hire people to load and unload your truck, that will be a separate cost. If you plan on towing your car instead of hiring a professional, then you’re looking at an extra $1,000 minimum.

Moving with a shipping container

Using a shipping container is the most cost-effective way to move to another state. The cost of this method ranges from $700-$5,000, depending on how many containers you need.

The company brings you the container. You pack it up and determine a date for the company to come to pick it up. The shipping company hauls the container to your final destination for you. Though shipping containers are a relatively inexpensive option, they’re also not the safest way to transport delicate belongings.

Additional costs to move

When you’re moving, don’t forget to factor in some hidden costs, such as packing supplies, shipping your car, and activating your utilities. It’s also a good idea to determine whether you want to take all of your furniture in your move or purchase new furniture once you’re at your new location. Plan your budget accordingly, and you’ll be sweeping over your new threshold in no time.

These policies will ensure safety in the workplace, but also a better quality of life for all those involved. Therefore, listed down below, are some of the benefits of drug testing programs in the workplace. Before you test make sure you are aware of the laws by checking out Health Street’s California drug testing laws page.
