Akron, OH → Duluth, MN · Long-distance move
About 776 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,030–$5,990, delivery in 2–5 days, 349 carriers on the Akron side and 57 in Duluth.
Moving from Akron to Duluth is a long-distance move of roughly 776 road miles, heading northwest from Ohio to Minnesota.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $4,030 to $5,990 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 14 h 5 min.
On the Akron side there are 349 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (215 of them authorized for interstate work), and 57 around Duluth (26 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Duluth.
Akron has a population of about 189,691 and Duluth about 86,000. Akron is considerably denser (3,077 people per square mile versus 1,210), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Minnesota is a higher-cost state than Ohio, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 776 road miles (658 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 14 h 5 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Ohio into Minnesota makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,100 to $1,550 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,710 to $2,520. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Akron–Duluth corridor.
