Reverse: Rochester → Provo

Moving from Provo to Rochester is a long-distance move of roughly 1,196 road miles, heading east from Utah to Minnesota.

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 $5,240 to $7,790 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 21 h 19 min.

On the Provo side there are 113 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (65 of them authorized for interstate work), and 116 around Rochester (72 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 Rochester.

Provo has a population of about 114,527 and Rochester about 124,292. The two cities have comparable density (2,762 and 2,187 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Provo to Rochester?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,090 to $3,120 for a studio, $3,140 to $4,670 for a one-bedroom, $5,240 to $7,790 for a two-bedroom, $8,380 to $12,470 for a three-bedroom and $11,520 to $17,140 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Rochester from Provo?

About 1,196 road miles (1,013 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 19 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 Utah into Minnesota 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 Provo to Rochester?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,680 to $2,370 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,090 to $3,070. 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 Provo–Rochester corridor.
