Tempe sits about 696 miles southeast of Carson City, which makes this an interstate relocation from Nevada to Arizona 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 $4,000 to $5,960 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 12 h 42 min.
On the Carson City side there are 32 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (23 of them authorized for interstate work), and 886 around Tempe (350 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 Tempe.
Carson City has a population of about 59,000 and Tempe about 190,571. Tempe is the denser city (4,526 people per square mile versus 406 in Carson City), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Arizona does collect a state income tax, unlike Nevada, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
