Reverse: Burbank → Davenport

Moving from Davenport to Burbank is a cross-country move of roughly 1,873 road miles, heading west from Iowa to California.

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 $7,030 to $10,460 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 33 hours (4 driving days).

On the Davenport side there are 98 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (78 of them authorized for interstate work), and 896 around Burbank (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 Burbank.

Davenport has a population of about 100,358 and Burbank about 102,988. Burbank is the denser city (6,204 people per square mile versus 1,594 in Davenport), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. California is a higher-cost state than Iowa, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Davenport to Burbank?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,810 to $4,190 for a studio, $4,220 to $6,280 for a one-bedroom, $7,030 to $10,460 for a two-bedroom, $11,250 to $16,740 for a three-bedroom and $15,470 to $23,020 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Burbank from Davenport?

About 1,873 road miles (1,587 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 33 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Iowa into California 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Davenport to Burbank?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,670 to $3,780 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,690 to $3,960. 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 Davenport–Burbank corridor.
