The route from Joliet, IL to Las Cruces, NM covers roughly 1,423 miles by road, a southwest-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 $5,640 to $8,400 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 27 around Las Cruces (21 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 Las Cruces.
Joliet has a population of about 152,241 and Las Cruces about 116,978. Joliet is considerably denser (2,331 people per square mile versus 1,448), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in New Mexico than in Illinois, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.
