Reverse: Sedona → Palm Springs

The route from Palm Springs, CA to Sedona, AZ covers roughly 331 miles by road, a east-bound trip that falls into the regional 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 $3,150 to $4,680 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 6 h 24 min.

On the Palm Springs side there are 74 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (33 of them authorized for interstate work), and 14 around Sedona (4 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 Sedona.

Palm Springs has a population of about 45,000 and Sedona about 10,000. The two cities have comparable density (471 and 530 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Arizona than in California, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Palm Springs to Sedona?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,400 to $2,080 for a studio, $1,890 to $2,810 for a one-bedroom, $3,150 to $4,680 for a two-bedroom, $5,040 to $7,490 for a three-bedroom and $6,920 to $10,300 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Sedona from Palm Springs?

About 331 road miles (280 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 24 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 California into Arizona 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 Springs to Sedona?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $490 to $690 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,320 to $1,930. 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 Springs–Sedona corridor.
