Reverse: Minot → Davenport

Moving from Davenport to Minot is a long-distance move of roughly 821 road miles, heading northwest from Iowa to North Dakota.

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 $3,990 to $5,940 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 14 h 51 min.

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 20 around Minot (13 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 Minot.

Davenport has a population of about 100,358 and Minot about 48,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,594 and 1,747 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,600 to $2,370 for a studio, $2,390 to $3,560 for a one-bedroom, $3,990 to $5,940 for a two-bedroom, $6,390 to $9,500 for a three-bedroom and $8,780 to $13,060 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Minot from Davenport?

About 821 road miles (696 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 14 h 51 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Iowa into North Dakota 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 Minot?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,140 to $1,610 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,750 to $2,580. 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–Minot corridor.
