Every move to North Dakota is different and there are no ‘one-size-fits-all’ when it comes to the moving cost to North Dakota.

Why so?

Because, a long-distance moving cost is decided by multiple factors including the distance, the volume of the belongings, and the mode of transport you choose. Also, the moving company you hire matters in the overall cost.

Here, you need to remember that North Dakota is spread over 113,990 square miles and you might be moving from the other side of the US or maybe from the next state (California or Nevada). Based on where to move from and where in North Dakota you move to, the moving cost will be different.

Here’s an approximate moving cost from different states to North Dakota

While you prepare a moving cost estimate to North Dakota, the following factors need to be considered:

• Size of the move:

  The heavier you stuff, the higher the moving cost will be.

• Distance between your origin and destination in North Dakota:

  The mileage between your current location and the destination in North Dakota is crucial while calculating the moving cost.

• Packing services:

  While hiring a moving company to pack the household belongings, the cost for packing materials and packing services will be added to the moving cost.

• Moving add-ons:

  Any specific add-on service will impact the moving cost. This includes disassembling and reassembling furniture, moving specialty items, and moving supplies provided by movers such as a stretch wrap, felt pads, and mattress bags.

• Storage:

  Post moving to the new destination in North Dakota, you might require a storage facility to stock your belongings for a specific period and the cost will be added to the moving quote.

• Moving date:

  The date you prefer to move is highly crucial as moving costs are greatly influenced by seasons. For example, a weekend moving or a holiday moving is more expensive than a weekday. Usually, people prefer moving in summer and the quotes tend to be highly expensive during this period. Also, summer in North Dakota is extremely hot.

• Insurance:

  The additional insurance against the belongings that are moved will add up to the moving cost.

Movers generally call a move within the state a local move as mostly it would be less than 100 miles. When you are moving locally, somewhere within the 100-mile radius, the costs are calculated differently by the moving companies. Movers charge on an hourly basis depending on how many laborers are required to complete the task.

The average cost could roughly be around $50-$75 per mover per hour. Usually, a minimum of 2 workers would require hours to complete the task in addition to the 1 hour drive time, which means you’ll be paying for at least 3 hours for 2 movers. This means, to move within North Dakota, the lowest amount you can expect to pay would be between $250 and $300, unless your move needs more hours or more people.

• Rent a tow behind cargo or utility trailer

  Hiring a utility trailer and towing behind your vehicle is an easy way to move your stuff within North Dakota. But your vehicle must have a trailer hitch for that.

  While hiring a cargo trailer, here are a few things to consider:

   

  • How much weight your vehicle can carry
  • What you’re hauling
  • Which type of moving trailer you need

   

• Move the stuff in your car

  You can consider moving your belongings in your vehicle when the total volume is just limited. It is extremely cheap but you need to squeeze the belongings into a car with open seats, floors, and a trunk. And if you find the volume a little more than what can be fit inside your vehicle, take the help of a friend and his car.

As opposed to moving locally within North Dakota, moving from or to another state complicates the move a bit more.

Here the moving options available to you may vary greatly depending on how far you’re moving and how much stuff you have.

For long distance moves, the DIY option doesn’t always work or is the most economical. This in part due to the fact that rental trucks cost a lot more when you’re renting them to drive cross country, not to mention the gas and drive time and all the headaches that come with driving long distances.

You may still get away with renting a truck and moving yourself, if you’re just moving a couple hundred miles or just one state over, but anything longer than that you might want to consider the following two options:

Full Service Moving:

Hire a full service moving company and let them handle all aspects of your move. From packing to unpacking, assembling and dissamebling your furniture to driving the truck and loading and unloading all the items, everything will be taken care of saving you all the hassle. Of Course all this comes at a price, but trust us, for moves that are long distance it definitely worth it.

Partial Moving Services:

If the full service, white-glove option is too expensive and out of budget, you may opt for companies offering partial moving services. Companies offer labor help that help you load and unload the stuff and you can rent a truck and drive yourself. Similarly you may look into the moving containers options.

Whichever way you decide to go, make sure to compare both options.
