Reverse: Hartford → Evansville

The route from Evansville, IN to Hartford, CT covers roughly 978 miles by road, a northeast-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $4,710 to $7,000 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 17 h 34 min.

On the Evansville side there are 120 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (81 of them authorized for interstate work), and 350 around Hartford (246 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 Hartford.

Evansville has a population of about 116,176 and Hartford about 121,981. Hartford is the denser city (6,957 people per square mile versus 2,475 in Evansville), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Connecticut is a higher-cost state than Indiana, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Tips for this move

Declutter first: long-haul pricing is by weight, so every hundred pounds you sell or donate saves money.
Check whether a shuttle truck is needed in Hartford if a 53-foot trailer cannot reach your street.
Keep vehicle titles, passports and prescriptions with you; movers cannot carry some items at all.
Insist on a binding or binding-not-to-exceed estimate after an in-home or video survey.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Evansville to Hartford?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,880 to $2,800 for a studio, $2,820 to $4,200 for a one-bedroom, $4,710 to $7,000 for a two-bedroom, $7,530 to $11,200 for a three-bedroom and $10,350 to $15,400 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Hartford from Evansville?

About 978 road miles (828 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 17 h 34 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 Indiana into Connecticut 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 Evansville to Hartford?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,450 to $2,050 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,890 to $2,780. 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 Evansville–Hartford corridor.
