Yonkers sits about 724 miles northeast of Columbia, which makes this an interstate relocation from South Carolina to New York 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 $4,270 to $6,360 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 11 min.
On the Columbia side there are 389 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (223 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,152 around Yonkers (1,091 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 Yonkers.
Columbia has a population of about 147,035 and Yonkers about 212,603. Yonkers is the denser city (11,754 people per square mile versus 999 in Columbia), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New York is a higher-cost state than South Carolina, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
