You’re moving, and how far away you’re moving will likely determine how a moving company charges you. Make sure you understand the terminology and the implications of each type of move before you get started. Loyal Moving has compiled some information that may help in determining what kind of moving company you need.
The local businesses and brands that our interstate agents independently operate claim to understand that each move is unique and that they strive to fulfill customers’ moving needs, regardless of the size of their home. Whether you need to move a one-bedroom condo or two-bedroom apartment, these local movers may be able to help.
Many of the local movers are experienced in small moves and can handle everything from start to finish, including helping you to customize your move plan with moving services that meet your needs. Below are some examples of what they typically describe as a small move:

Local moves are considered moves that are a short distance within the same state. The mileage, size or scale of the move is not a factor in determining if a move is local or not; whether your shipment crosses a state line is what will differentiate a local or intrastate move from a long distance move.
Intrastate moves may typically be longer distance moves that occur within the same state. These moves might not be considered local even though they are within the same state.
Interstate moves are different than local or intrastate moves because they involve moving goods across state lines. Interstate moves may also be referred to as long distance, cross country or state-to-state moves. Interstate moves require special authority to perform any part of a move from one state to another. Federal regulators grant this authority.
With our network of more than 300 agents, United provides full service, long-distance moving services. However, if you are moving locally, within the same state, as noted above, our interstate agents also independently provide local services under their own businesses and brands.
Here’s how the United/Interstate Agent relationship works:
United works with our network of hundreds of independently owned and operated moving companies across the country. Through these interstate moving agents, United is able to provide the comprehensive moving services you would expect from a nationwide mover.
Our United long-distance moving agents also independently serve local customers under their own businesses and brands. If you have a local move within the same state, you can view a list of these local moving companies here.
Each local mover has their own processes and ways of doing things, but you should look for a local mover that offers a no-nonsense approach and makes the entire process easier for you— so you can focus on everything else that needs to be done before, during and after your local move. You should be sure your local mover clearly understands all your key move details, like move dates, number of bedrooms and origin and destination addresses, that might be needed for your local mover to determine your local moving quote.
With United, a full service, long distance move means we handle the heavy lifting from start to finish. Our full service moving service is perfect for people who don’t want to take on the physical tasks involved in a move, such as packing, unpacking, loading, unloading and driving the truck. Ask your local mover what services may be available for your local move, as they may also be a great choice for those who don’t want to manage the tasks of moving locally on their own.
