The route from Tempe, AZ to Quincy, MA covers roughly 2,705 miles by road, a northeast-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 $8,620 to $12,820 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 47 hours (6 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 456 around Quincy (277 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 Quincy.

Tempe has a population of about 190,571 and Quincy about 103,173. Quincy is the denser city (6,123 people per square mile versus 4,526 in Tempe), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Massachusetts is a higher-cost state than Arizona, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $3,450 to $5,130 for a studio, $5,170 to $7,690 for a one-bedroom, $8,620 to $12,820 for a two-bedroom, $13,790 to $20,520 for a three-bedroom and $18,960 to $28,210 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Quincy from Tempe?

About 2,705 road miles (2,292 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 47 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 Arizona into Massachusetts 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 Tempe to Quincy?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,830 to $5,410 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,430 to $5,050. 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 Tempe–Quincy corridor.
