The route from Joliet, IL to Idaho Falls, ID covers roughly 1,440 miles by road, a west-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 $5,860 to $8,710 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 25 hours (3 driving days).
On the Joliet side there are 694 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (561 of them authorized for interstate work), and 81 around Idaho Falls (67 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 Idaho Falls.
Joliet has a population of about 152,241 and Idaho Falls about 68,000. The two cities have comparable density (2,331 and 2,440 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.
