Long-distance movers in Bellevue
A long-distance move means relocating over 50 miles away or from one state to another. Make sure the moving company you hire has the necessary federal licensing when moving across state lines. Interstate movers are required to have United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) and Motor Carrier (MC) numbers. You can use the USDOT number, MC number or mover's name to check a carrier’s licensing status in the FMCSA’s database.
We’ve verified that the long-distance moving services below are actively licensed. These reliable movers can help get you and your belongings safely and smoothly to your new home.
Our Top Pick
In Nebraska, interstate movers are required to hold both state and federal licenses. Nebraska movers are regulated by the Department of Public Utilities (DPU). The DPU maintains an alphabetical list of licensed movers in the state on their website.
Why is moving so expensive?
The average hourly moving rate for moving within or out of Bellevue is higher than the national average, making it a fairly expensive process. This makes sense considering the cost of living in Bellevue is above 74.6% of the country.
Moving expenses add up fast depending on what services you need. Common moving expenses include the following:
- Packing
- Professional labor
- Fuel
- Supplies
- Storage
- Junk removal
These additional considerations can add even more to your total cost:
Transporting specialty items
Professional movers may charge more to move certain items, especially those that are valuable, fragile or oversized. These common items can be more expensive to move:
- Heavy pieces of furniture or technology
- Family heirlooms or antiques
- Artwork and sculptures
- Pianos
- Safes
When vetting moving companies, ask whether they move these items and how much it'll cost.
Tipping your movers
While tipping your movers isn’t required, it’s customary if your movers handled your belongings with care or made your move stress - free. Consider tipping each mover $5–$10 per hour for local moves and $20–$40 per day for long-distance moves.
Unexpected delays
Bad weather, traffic, limited supplies and transportation emergencies can all delay your move and increase the time and cost. There’s no way to combat unexpected delays, but you can prepare for them by having a flexible schedule and budgeting 25% more than your movers quote you.

How to save money on moving costs
Keeping these ways in mind can reduce your moving expenses in Bellevue.
Be communicative
To prevent unexpected charges on your moving day, maintain open communication with your movers, especially about items you add to your inventory after a virtual or in-person walkthrough with your movers.
While small items can typically be accommodated without a problem, larger pieces such as new appliances or furniture should be discussed beforehand. The movers may charge more for those items and won’t begin your move until you’ve consented to the additional cost.
Have a flexible schedule
Moving in the off-season or during the week can save some money and ensure you book the movers you want.
Peak moving season is between May and September. You may get lower moving rates and less competition if your timeline is flexible and you can schedule your move outside of those months.
Consider alternatives to professional movers
If you can’t find a cheap moving company that meets your needs, there are alternative routes you can take.
One alternative is handling the move by yourself. Consider the amount of labor required and the following costs when deciding between professional moving team and moving yourself:
- Packing supplies
- Moving truck rental
- Fuel
Your friends, family or neighbors may also need to help you move, especially if you have large items such as furniture. Professional movers provide significant value if you lack the time or support to commit to self-moving.
Hiring movers on service marketplaces such as Thumbtack or Fiverr is another alternative. Hiring hourly help can be more cost-effective, but freelance service providers may not have proper licensing or insurance.
FAQ about moving in Bellevue
What’s full-service moving?
Full-service moving means the movers take care of all aspects of the moving process, including providing packing supplies, packing your belongings, transporting them and unpacking them.
Standard moving services cost less than full-service moving, as they typically only include loading and transporting your belongings. However, full-service moving can be a justifiable expense when you factor in the time, labor and packing supplies you'll save. Full-service moving may also provide better insurance coverage. Self-packed items are usually only covered for up to 60 cents per dollar, and damage claims for these goods can be tough to get approved.
How do you know a mover is licensed?
Any legitimate moving company will show their proof of registration on physical trucks and formal files. If you're making an out of state move, you should screen companies for legitimate USDOT and MC numbers beforehand by visiting the official FMCSA website. Moving companies in Nebraska are also required to have a license from the Nebraska Public Service Commission.
How does moving insurance work?
You should also look into a mover's insurance policies. Every company should offer released-value coverage, which covers items at 60 cents per pound per item. Also consider full-value protection coverage if you're transporting valuable goods — just know that these plans cost extra.
When is the best time of year to move?
The warmer months — May through September — are the optimal time to move in the U.S., which leads to considerably increased demand and notably higher rates across the country for moves of all sizes. Rightfully so, this may steer you away from a summer move due to the higher cost.
We advise moving in the springtime or early autumn so that you have optimal weather conditions and more affordable pricing for services.
What things should I leave to the movers, and what should I transport myself?
For peace of mind, move items like identification documents, financial records and valuable keepsakes in your own car. Similarly, load up your vehicle with any high-end electronics that you wouldn't want lost or damaged.
Moving businesses frequently restrict insurance coverage on expensive items, like jewelry and heirlooms. Carry irreplaceable and valuable belongings in your own car if you're worried about loss or damage.
There are certain goods and materials prohibited for transportation by moving companies. These include the following:
- Batteries
- Fuel sources
- Flammable chemicals of any kind
- Plants
- Compressed tanks or gas
- Aerosols
- Perishable foods and produce
- Toxic chemicals or cleaners
- Fertilizers
Our methodology for selecting moving companies
The Homefront Local team employs a proprietary scoring algorithm that evaluates companies based on key factors you value, such as average customer review ratings and trustworthiness indicators. Our method for determining trust involves a comparative analysis of the number of reviews a company receives compared to its local competitors. This leads to companies that have earned more trust from your local community being awarded a higher score.
We review national moving providers against our full moving methodology. We score movers based on reputation and customer experience, service availability, cost and pricing practices, insurance options, customer service and communication.
