How Long Does it Take for a Moving Company to Deliver?

When moving locally, a moving company will simply load your belongings in a truck, drive to your new home, and unload them the same day. However, long distance moves are a bit more complicated. Even if you are driving to your new location, you will likely make it there before the moving company does. Many moving companies will also pack multiple client shipments on the same truck, in order to make more efficient use of their resources. Because of this, there are multiple factors that will determine how long it takes a moving company to deliver your shipment, including:

• The distance of your move – It stands to reason that the farther away your move, the longer it is going to take to deliver your items. Plus, if you are moving a very far distance, it is more likely that other shipments are going to be delivered before yours along the way.
• The price you want to pay – Some moving companies will give you the option to pay less and wait longer for a shipment or to pay more money to make delivering your shipment a priority.
• The other shipments on the truck – If there is anything that causes a delay in delivering the other shipments on the truck, then this will also delay your shipment.
