Moving from Richmond to Phoenix is a long-distance move of roughly 767 road miles, heading southeast from California 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 $4,590 to $6,830 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 13 h 55 min.
On the Richmond side there are 252 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (86 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,433 around Phoenix (623 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 Phoenix.
Richmond has a population of about 114,861 and Phoenix about 1.7 million. The two cities have comparable density (3,869 and 3,105 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.
