What to expect
Long-distance moves are priced by weight or cubic feet with a binding estimate, so the number on your quote is the number on your final bill unless you add items. We never hand your belongings to an unnamed subcontractor between Charlotte and your new driveway.
Popular routes include Charlotte to Raleigh, Atlanta, Nashville, Northern Virginia and Florida, but our interstate operating authority covers every state in the continental U.S. Dedicated trucks are available for time-sensitive moves.
"Binding estimate, same truck the whole way and delivery a day early. The final bill matched the quote to the dollar."

Long-distance scheduling
What a delivery spread looks like on your shipment
Every interstate shipment is booked against a first available delivery date and a spread of days after it. Pick the distance and the weight and see the window we would write on your order for service.

Six things that set the width of the window
Line-haul lane scheduling
A driver running Charlotte to Phoenix needs a paying load back. Shipments are matched to lanes, and a thin lane in February moves slower than I-85 in July.
Federal hours of service
Drivers are capped at 11 driving hours inside a 14 hour window and 70 hours in 8 days. A 2,400 mile run is a minimum of four driving days before a single box comes off.
Shuttle at either end
If a 53 ft trailer cannot legally reach the door, goods transfer to a 26 ft shuttle. That is a half day of labour and one more handling step at each end.
Storage in transit
If your closing slips, the shipment goes into vaults at our warehouse and re-enters the schedule when you release it. The spread restarts from the release date.
Peak season volume
Between 15 May and 30 September the network runs full. The same lane that holds a 5 day spread in March widens to 9 or 10 days in July.
Your own earliest date
The spread cannot open before the date you can accept delivery. Give us a real key date, not an optimistic one, and the window tightens.
If you need a firm date rather than a spread, ask for guaranteed service on the order for service. Guaranteed delivery carries a per-day delay payment written into the contract and costs more, because the trailer runs to your calendar instead of the network's.
