Philadelphia sits about 2,447 miles northeast of Tempe, which makes this an interstate relocation from Arizona to Pennsylvania 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 $7,430 to $11,060 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 42 hours (5 driving days).
On the Tempe side there are 886 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (350 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,658 around Philadelphia (1,138 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 Philadelphia.
Tempe has a population of about 190,571 and Philadelphia about 1.6 million. Philadelphia is the denser city (11,933 people per square mile versus 4,526 in Tempe), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
