Atlanta sits about 1,855 miles east of Scottsdale, which makes this an interstate relocation from Arizona to Georgia that most movers classify as a cross-country 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 $6,420 to $9,560 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 32 hours (4 driving days).
On the Scottsdale side there are 431 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (174 of them authorized for interstate work), and 3,398 around Atlanta (1,586 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 Atlanta.
Scottsdale has a population of about 243,006 and Atlanta about 529,110. Atlanta is the denser city (3,686 people per square mile versus 1,312 in Scottsdale), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
