Moving from Buckeye to Yuma is a short-haul move of roughly 149 road miles, heading southwest within Arizona.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 3 h 16 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $2,160 and $3,210, before packing or storage.

On the Buckeye side there are 87 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (50 of them authorized for interstate work), and 66 around Yuma (57 interstate). For an in-state 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 Yuma.

Buckeye has a population of about 125,445 and Yuma about 105,227. Yuma is the denser city (792 people per square mile versus 233 in Buckeye), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Buckeye to Yuma?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,250 to $1,870 for a studio, $1,300 to $1,930 for a one-bedroom, $2,160 to $3,210 for a two-bedroom, $3,450 to $5,140 for a three-bedroom and $4,750 to $7,060 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Yuma from Buckeye?

About 149 road miles (126 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 3 h 16 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Buckeye and Yuma are in Arizona, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Buckeye to Yuma?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $300 to $430 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,150 to $1,700. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Buckeye–Yuma corridor.
