Raleigh, NC → Goodyear, AZ · Cross-country move
About 2,263 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $7,030–$10,460, delivery in 7–14 days, 739 carriers on the Raleigh side and 201 in Goodyear.
Moving from Raleigh to Goodyear is a cross-country move of roughly 2,263 road miles, heading west from North Carolina 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 $7,030 to $10,460 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 39 hours (5 driving days).
On the Raleigh side there are 739 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (399 of them authorized for interstate work), and 201 around Goodyear (97 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 Goodyear.
Raleigh has a population of about 506,306 and Goodyear about 125,359. Raleigh is considerably denser (3,179 people per square mile versus 498), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

About 2,263 road miles (1,918 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 39 hours (5 driving days).
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.
Yes. Crossing from North Carolina 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,230 to $4,550 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,040 to $4,470. 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.
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 Raleigh–Goodyear corridor.
