Moving from Palm Coast to Evanston is a long-distance move of roughly 1,105 road miles, heading north from Florida to Illinois.

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 $5,050 to $7,520 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 19 h 45 min.

On the Palm Coast side there are 66 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (28 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.

Palm Coast has a population of about 109,886 and Evanston about 78,000. Evanston is the denser city (10,041 people per square mile versus 936 in Palm Coast), 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.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Palm Coast to Evanston?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,020 to $3,010 for a studio, $3,030 to $4,510 for a one-bedroom, $5,050 to $7,520 for a two-bedroom, $8,090 to $12,030 for a three-bedroom and $11,120 to $16,540 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Evanston from Palm Coast?

About 1,105 road miles (936 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 19 h 45 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Florida into Illinois 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 Palm Coast to Evanston?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,590 to $2,240 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,010 to $2,950. 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 Palm Coast–Evanston corridor.
