Chico, CA → Missoula, MT · Long-distance move
About 741 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,480–$6,660, delivery in 2–5 days, 47 carriers on the Chico side and 35 in Missoula.
Moving from Chico to Missoula is a long-distance move of roughly 741 road miles, heading northeast from California to Montana.
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 $4,480 to $6,660 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 29 min.
On the Chico side there are 47 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (22 of them authorized for interstate work), and 35 around Missoula (24 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 Missoula.
Chico has a population of about 105,081 and Missoula about 76,000. Chico is considerably denser (2,976 people per square mile versus 2,111), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Montana than in California, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 741 road miles (628 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 13 h 29 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 California into Montana 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 $1,060 to $1,500 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,680 to $2,470. 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 Chico–Missoula corridor.
