Peoria sits about 629 miles southeast of Bemidji, which makes this an interstate relocation from Minnesota to Illinois that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $3,850 to $5,730 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 11 h 33 min.
On the Bemidji side there are 27 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (12 of them authorized for interstate work), and 42 around Peoria (29 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 Peoria.
Bemidji has a population of about 15,000 and Peoria about 110,920. Peoria is the denser city (2,357 people per square mile versus 914 in Bemidji), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
