Salt Lake City, UT → Minot, ND · Long-distance move
About 867 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,290–$6,390, delivery in 2–5 days, 531 carriers on the Salt Lake City side and 20 in Minot.
Minot sits about 867 miles northeast of Salt Lake City, which makes this an interstate relocation from Utah to North Dakota that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $4,290 to $6,390 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 15 h 39 min.
On the Salt Lake City side there are 531 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (306 of them authorized for interstate work), and 20 around Minot (13 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 Minot.
Salt Lake City has a population of about 218,428 and Minot about 48,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,811 and 1,747 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 867 road miles (734 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 15 h 39 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 Utah into North Dakota 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 $1,190 to $1,680 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,790 to $2,640. 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 Salt Lake City–Minot corridor.
