The route from Joliet, IL to Yonkers, NY covers roughly 876 miles by road, a east-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 $4,900 to $7,290 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 48 min.
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 2,152 around Yonkers (1,091 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 Yonkers.
Joliet has a population of about 152,241 and Yonkers about 212,603. Yonkers is the denser city (11,754 people per square mile versus 2,331 in Joliet), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New York is a higher-cost state than Illinois, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
