Alex and the crew were very professional and took great care of our stuff. We booked on short notice and they were accommodating and communicated throughout the move. They even helped move some of the boxes of stuff from our garage to the appropriate rooms as we had a little extra time.

What took me at least 8 hours of painstaking work took them less than 2. Makes me wish I used them for the loading AND unloading. Raul and Hazael were so quick and nice and communicative throughout the entire process. Makes things easier on yourself by using them if you need to move at all. It’s wel...

How many people actually move between Palm Desert and Phoenix, AZ

Federal tax-filer records, 2022-2023 · about 290 miles apart

-1,286 net
2,705 out
1,419 in

Over the year, 2,705 people moved from Palm Desert to Phoenix, AZ, and 1,419 came back the other way. At 290 miles this is a long-haul job, priced by weight and distance rather than by the hour. It also crosses a state line, so the company you hire must hold active interstate operating authority with the FMCSA.

Where this comes from: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023 — the IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns; the counts above are the people on those returns. County-level and about two years behind.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
