Moving to or from Idaho
California to Boise is the defining lane of the past decade. Washington, Oregon and Utah add steady regional volume.
Winter matters outside the Treasure Valley. Deliveries into the panhandle or the mountain areas can need chains, and a January delivery date carries genuine schedule risk.
Whether the job stays inside Idaho or crosses state lines, the same company handles it end to end. United Relocation is an FMCSA-authorized motor carrier — we are not passing your shipment to whichever crew happens to bid on it.

Moving in Idaho: common questions
What does a move from Idaho depend on?
Weight and distance first — Portland, OR is about 440 miles out, Fresno, CA about 600, and that gap alone changes the job. Boise-area moves price like a metro; anything into the panhandle adds serious distance. Our published starting rates give you a floor — $250 an hour on a local move, from $1,800 on a long haul — and the number that binds is a written estimate against your actual inventory, which is free.
Which cities in Idaho do you serve?
Boise is the largest market in the state at roughly 214,000 people, and we also run crews in Nampa, Meridian, Idaho Falls, Pocatello, Caldwell, Twin Falls. Smaller towns are covered too, though rural addresses sometimes need a shuttle from a smaller truck.
How long does a move out of Idaho take?
Inside Idaho, normally loaded and delivered the same day. Interstate, distance sets it: Portland, OR at 440 miles lands in one to two days, Fresno, CA at 600 miles takes longer. Summer is peak inbound; winter pass closures make January dates risky.
