Moving from Wasilla to Montgomery is a cross-country move of roughly 4,021 road miles, heading east from Alaska to Alabama.

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 $10,330 to $15,380 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 70 hours (8 driving days).

On the Wasilla side there are 49 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (6 of them authorized for interstate work), and 172 around Montgomery (94 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 Montgomery.

Wasilla has a population of about 11,000 and Montgomery about 195,300. Montgomery is the denser city (1,255 people per square mile versus 730 in Wasilla), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Labor and living costs run lower in Alabama than in Alaska, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that Alabama does collect a state income tax, unlike Alaska, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Wasilla to Montgomery?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $4,130 to $6,150 for a studio, $6,200 to $9,230 for a one-bedroom, $10,330 to $15,380 for a two-bedroom, $16,540 to $24,600 for a three-bedroom and $22,740 to $33,830 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Montgomery from Wasilla?

About 4,021 road miles (3,407 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 70 hours (8 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 Alaska into Alabama 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 Wasilla to Montgomery?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $5,480 to $7,740 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $4,610 to $6,780. 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 Wasilla–Montgomery corridor.
