St. Paul, MN → Yonkers, NY · Long-distance move
About 1,190 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,730–$8,530, delivery in 3–7 days, 1,099 carriers on the St. Paul side and 2,152 in Yonkers.
Moving from St. Paul to Yonkers is a long-distance move of roughly 1,190 road miles, heading east from Minnesota to New York.
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 $5,730 to $8,530 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 21 h 13 min.
On the St. Paul side there are 1,099 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (499 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,152 around Yonkers (1,091 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 Yonkers.
St. Paul has a population of about 306,684 and Yonkers about 212,603. Yonkers is the denser city (11,754 people per square mile versus 5,991 in St. Paul), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New York is a higher-cost state than Minnesota, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 1,190 road miles (1,009 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 13 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Minnesota into New York 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 $1,670 to $2,360 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,080 to $3,060. 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 St. Paul–Yonkers corridor.
