Evanston sits about 1,228 miles north of Melbourne, which makes this an interstate relocation from Florida to Illinois that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $5,370 to $7,990 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 21 h 52 min.
On the Melbourne side there are 110 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (44 of them authorized for interstate work), and 739 around Evanston (527 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 Evanston.
Melbourne has a population of about 86,000 and Evanston about 78,000. Evanston is the denser city (10,041 people per square mile versus 1,916 in Melbourne), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Illinois does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
