The route from Meridian, ID to Duluth, MN covers roughly 1,412 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 $5,730 to $8,520 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 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 57 around Duluth (26 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 Duluth.
Meridian has a population of about 142,988 and Duluth about 86,000. Meridian is considerably denser (3,351 people per square mile versus 1,210), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.
