Reverse: Davie → Meridian

Davie sits about 2,776 miles east of Meridian, which makes this an interstate relocation from Idaho to Florida that most movers classify as a cross-country 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 $7,960 to $11,840 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 7 to 14 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 48 hours (6 driving days).

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 1,589 around Davie (600 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 Davie.

Meridian has a population of about 142,988 and Davie about 110,851. The two cities have comparable density (3,351 and 3,028 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Florida levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Meridian to Davie?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $3,180 to $4,730 for a studio, $4,770 to $7,100 for a one-bedroom, $7,960 to $11,840 for a two-bedroom, $12,730 to $18,940 for a three-bedroom and $17,500 to $26,040 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Davie from Meridian?

About 2,776 road miles (2,353 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 48 hours (6 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 7 to 14 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Idaho into Florida makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Meridian to Davie?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,900 to $5,510 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,500 to $5,140. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Meridian–Davie corridor.
