Residential Moving Services
Local Moving
Local moves are considered moves that are a short distance within the same state. The mileage, size or scale of the move is not a factor in determining if a move is local or not; whether your shipment crosses a state line is what will differentiate a local or intrastate move from a long distance move.
Intrastate Moving
Intrastate moves may typically be longer distance moves that occur within the same state. These moves might not be considered local even though they are within the same state.
Interstate Moving
Interstate moves are different than local or intrastate moves because they involve moving goods across state lines. Interstate moves may also be referred to as long distance, cross country or state-to-state moves. Interstate moves require special authority to perform any part of a move from one state to another. Federal regulators grant this authority.
Local Home Moving Services
With our network of more than 300 agents, United Nationwide provides full service, long-distance moving services. However, if you are moving locally, within the same state, as noted above, our interstate agents also independently provide local services under their own businesses and brands.
Here’s how the United Nationwide Agent relationship works:
United Nationwide works with our network of hundreds of independently owned and operated moving companies across the country. Through these interstate moving agents, United Nationwide is able to provide the comprehensive moving services you would expect from a nationwide mover.
Our United Nationwide long-distance moving agents also independently serve local customers under their own businesses and brands. If you have a local move within the same state, you can view a list of these local moving companies here.

Find Local Movers
Each local mover has their own processes and ways of doing things, but you should look for a local mover that offers a no-nonsense approach and makes the entire process easier for you— so you can focus on everything else that needs to be done before, during and after your local move.
You should be sure your local mover clearly understands all your key move details, like move dates, number of bedrooms and origin and destination addresses, that might be needed for your local mover to determine your local moving quote.
Full Service Local Moves
With United Nationwide, a full service, long distance move means we handle the heavy lifting from start to finish. Our full service moving service is perfect for people who don’t want to take on the physical tasks involved in a move, such as packing, unpacking, loading, unloading and driving the truck. Ask your local mover what services may be available for your local move, as they may also be a great choice for those who don’t want to manage the tasks of moving locally on their own.
