Moving from Pembroke Pines to Scottsdale is a cross-country move of roughly 2,305 road miles, heading northwest from Florida 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 $7,280 to $10,830 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 40 hours (5 driving days).

On the Pembroke Pines side there are 2,479 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (829 of them authorized for interstate work), and 431 around Scottsdale (174 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 Scottsdale.

Pembroke Pines has a population of about 176,714 and Scottsdale about 243,006. Pembroke Pines is considerably denser (5,235 people per square mile versus 1,312), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that Arizona does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Tips for this move

Expect a delivery spread of one to two weeks; plan temporary housing in Scottsdale accordingly.
Compare a full-service van line against a container service; for a small household the container often wins.
Ask about consolidated versus dedicated truck options—dedicated is faster but costs more.
Read the FMCSA 'Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move' booklet the carrier must provide.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Pembroke Pines to Scottsdale?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,910 to $4,330 for a studio, $4,370 to $6,500 for a one-bedroom, $7,280 to $10,830 for a two-bedroom, $11,640 to $17,320 for a three-bedroom and $16,010 to $23,820 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Scottsdale from Pembroke Pines?

About 2,305 road miles (1,953 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 40 hours (5 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 Florida 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 Pembroke Pines to Scottsdale?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,270 to $4,610 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,080 to $4,530. 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 Pembroke Pines–Scottsdale corridor.
