Reverse: Madison → Evansville

The route from Evansville, IN to Madison, WI covers roughly 432 miles by road, a north-bound trip that falls into the regional 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 $3,000 to $4,460 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 8 h 9 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 228 around Madison (120 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 Madison.

Evansville has a population of about 116,176 and Madison about 286,233. Madison is the denser city (3,390 people per square mile versus 2,475 in Evansville), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,200 to $1,780 for a studio, $1,800 to $2,670 for a one-bedroom, $3,000 to $4,460 for a two-bedroom, $4,790 to $7,130 for a three-bedroom and $6,590 to $9,810 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Madison from Evansville?

About 432 road miles (366 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 8 h 9 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Wisconsin 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 Madison?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $590 to $840 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,410 to $2,070. 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–Madison corridor.
