How Long Distance Movers in Tempe Work

If you want a long distance moving company in Tempe, start with how the city is laid out. Tempe is ringed by freeways: I-10 near the western edge through the Broadway Curve, Loop 202 across the north, Loop 101 along the east border and US 60 east to west through the middle of the city. As cross country movers in Tempe, we pick the freeway for the first leg before moving day, not at the curb.

Questions to Ask Before You Hire a Tempe Mover

Reputation icon

Tempe Track Record

Ask which Tempe buildings and routes a crew has handled, and how it plans around Loop 101, US 60 and I-10 for the first leg out of town.

Moving truck icon

Service Scope

Confirm what is covered: packing, loading, hauling and unpacking at the other end. A cross-country quote should say who wraps the glassware and who places the furniture.

Price tag icon

Quote Comparison

Quote the same inventory with every mover, and ask if the price assumes a shared load. True Move does not do shared or consolidated loads.

Insurance icon

Coverage Questions

Ask each mover in writing how your items are covered in transit and what the coverage excludes. A move across several states deserves a clear answer before loading day.

Ready to Leave Tempe? We Haul to Every Contiguous State

True Move covers all contiguous states, so a Tempe household can head to a neighboring state or the opposite coast. Tell us the destination and we build the route, with the loaded truck leaving town by whichever freeway fits: I-10, US 60, Loop 101 or Loop 202.

What Sets Our Tempe Long Distance Crews Apart

ASU’s Tempe campus had 51,200 students in fall 2026, far more than any other ASU campus, and welcomed 16,000 new first-year undergraduates. When that many people arrive and leave, pickup days near campus get crowded, so book your loading date with that in mind.

How We Handle Long Distance Moves From Tempe

Packing, loading and hauling planned as one job from Tempe.

Moving Out of a High-Rise or House in Tempe

A 20-story building and a house with a driveway need different plans, so we ask about access first.

Take Mirabella at ASU, a 20-story senior living high-rise at Mill Avenue and University Drive. When it opened in December 2020, residents moved in at four units a day, a pace that shows how a tall building schedules its moves. We plan high-rise pickups around the building’s own timing.

From your first box to the last piece placed in your new home, we handle packing, loading, hauling and unpacking. Packing happens before loading starts, so furniture and glassware are wrapped while the truck’s parking spot stays clear, then everything goes on the truck in one pass.

Planning the Route Out of Tempe

ADOT finished the I-10 Broadway Curve project in 2025, adding travel and HOV lanes both ways between US 60 and I-17, so we plan departures around it.

Packing Done Before Loading

Our crew wraps glassware, artwork and furniture with sturdy boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap and tape, so the truck is loaded once and nothing is repacked at the curb.

Your Items Ride Alone

True Move does not do shared or consolidated loads, so your household is never mixed with other customers’ freight. It travels in a well-maintained truck from Tempe to your new address.

Storage When Closing Dates Slip

If your new home is not ready when your Tempe lease ends, we offer secure storage so your items wait safely until delivery.

From Studio to Full Household, Any Size

Whether it is a studio near campus or a full household, we ask early about stairs, elevators and gate access, since those decide how long loading takes before the haul begins.

Timing a Tempe Move Around Heat and Move-In

Know the Tempe Calendar

Fall residence hall move-in ran August 15 to 16 near campus, so we suggest other dates.

Beat the Summer Heat

The National Weather Service calls excessive heat Arizona’s number-one weather-related killer, so plan summer loading for the cooler morning hours.

Clear Plan, Clean Handoff

We walk through pickup access, packing scope, the route out of Tempe and your destination with you first, so each stage is settled before the truck is loaded.

Plan the Move Before the Truck Arrives

Start with access: where the truck parks and how far items carry.

FAQs

Tempe Long Distance Moving Questions, Answered

Yes. For a long haul out of Tempe we can pack everything or only the fragile pieces, using sturdy boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap and tape. Glassware, antiques, artwork and furniture are wrapped before anything goes on the truck. At the other end the crew can unpack and place items in the rooms you choose. In a 20-story building like Mirabella at ASU, packing first also means fewer loose items on the way down.

Yes, we load out of high-rises. Mirabella at ASU, for example, is a 20-story senior living high-rise at Mill Avenue and University Drive, and its residents moved in at four units a day when it opened in December 2020. Tall buildings run on a schedule, so tell us your building and we plan pickup around its timing.

Tempe is ringed by freeways: I-10 near the western edge through the Broadway Curve, Loop 202 across the north, Loop 101 along the east border and US 60 through the middle. ADOT finished the I-10 Broadway Curve project in 2025, adding travel and HOV lanes both ways between US 60 and I-17. We pick the exit that fits your destination.

Arizona State University's Tempe campus had 51,200 students in fall 2026, and 16,000 new first-year undergraduates arrived. Residence hall move-in ran August 15 to 16. If your pickup is near campus, ask for a different day that week so the truck is not competing with that arrival rush.

Yes. Our pickup and haul off service takes furniture, appliances and yard waste, and we recycle or donate what we can. Our Phoenix office is about 10.8 road miles from Tempe on free-flow routing, and we can often offer same-day service, so you can clear out leftovers right before the truck departs.
