Moving from Evanston to Jersey City is a long-distance move of roughly 840 road miles, heading east from Illinois to New Jersey.
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 $4,650 to $6,920 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 15 h 11 min.
On the Evanston side there are 739 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (527 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,933 around Jersey City (1,570 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 Jersey City.
Evanston has a population of about 78,000 and Jersey City about 302,013. Jersey City is the denser city (19,894 people per square mile versus 10,041 in Evanston), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New Jersey is a higher-cost state than Illinois, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
