Factors that Affect the Cost of Moving from Illinois to Nevada

There's no single set price for a move, since costs depend on a handful of important details. Here are the biggest factors that can influence your overall moving quote.

  • Timing of your move: Moving during the busy season, especially summer, often comes with higher rates. Pricing can also increase on weekends and around the start and end of the month.
  • Professional vs. DIY: Your choice between DIY and full-service moving impacts more than just the price tag. DIY can reduce upfront costs, but you take on the packing and heavy lifting, while American Van Lines handles the hard parts for you and helps you avoid the extra hassle.
  • Exact distance: The farther you move, the more you can expect to pay. Even small mileage changes between origins and destinations can shift your quote.
  • Size of move: More rooms and more items typically mean higher costs since your move requires more labor, more time, and a larger amount of truck space.
