long distance move

Interstate household relocation

A long distance move is a residential or commercial relocation spanning a significant geographic distance, typically across state lines or several hundred miles.

Moving companies often distinguish long distance moves from local moves for pricing and logistics—local moves charge hourly while long distance moves charge by weight and mileage.

We're planning a long distance move from Boston to Seattle next summer.
