Scottsdale, AZ → Peoria, AZ · Local move
About 31 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,180–$1,760, delivery in 0–1 days, 431 carriers on the Scottsdale side and 392 in Peoria.
Peoria sits about 31 miles west of Scottsdale, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a local move.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 58 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,180 and $1,760, before packing or storage.
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 392 around Peoria (187 interstate). For an in-state 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 Peoria.
Scottsdale has a population of about 243,006 and Peoria about 200,881. The two cities have comparable density (1,312 and 1,085 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $630 to $930 for a studio, $740 to $1,090 for a one-bedroom, $1,180 to $1,760 for a two-bedroom, $1,830 to $2,730 for a three-bedroom and $2,750 to $4,090 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.
About 31 road miles (27 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 58 min.
For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.
No. Because both Scottsdale and Peoria are in Arizona, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $180 to $260 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,050 to $1,540. 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 Scottsdale–Peoria corridor.
