Palmdale sits about 744 miles south of Boise, which makes this an interstate relocation from Idaho to California 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 $4,490 to $6,670 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 13 h 32 min.
On the Boise side there are 168 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (127 of them authorized for interstate work), and 129 around Palmdale (66 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 Palmdale.
Boise has a population of about 238,429 and Palmdale about 161,845. Boise is considerably denser (2,806 people per square mile versus 1,597), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. California is a higher-cost state than Idaho, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
