Reverse: Tempe → Springfield

The route from Springfield, MA to Tempe, AZ covers roughly 2,612 miles by road, a west-bound trip that falls into the cross-country move category for pricing purposes.

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 $8,460 to $12,580 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 45 hours (6 driving days).

On the Springfield side there are 213 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (155 of them authorized for interstate work), and 886 around Tempe (350 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 Tempe.

Springfield has a population of about 154,702 and Tempe about 190,571. The two cities have comparable density (4,888 and 4,526 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 Massachusetts, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Springfield to Tempe?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $3,380 to $5,030 for a studio, $5,070 to $7,550 for a one-bedroom, $8,460 to $12,580 for a two-bedroom, $13,530 to $20,130 for a three-bedroom and $18,600 to $27,680 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Tempe from Springfield?

About 2,612 road miles (2,213 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 45 hours (6 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Massachusetts 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Springfield to Tempe?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,580 to $5,060 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,350 to $4,930. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Springfield–Tempe corridor.
