Moving from Meridian to Avondale is a long-distance move of roughly 879 road miles, heading south from Idaho to Arizona.
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 $4,370 to $6,500 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 51 min.
On the Meridian side there are 176 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (130 of them authorized for interstate work), and 311 around Avondale (138 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 Avondale.
Meridian has a population of about 142,988 and Avondale about 100,983. Meridian is considerably denser (3,351 people per square mile versus 1,889), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.
