The route
A genuine long haul at 1,746 miles from California to Minnesota. Almost all of these move as consolidated freight: your goods share a trailer and the carrier quotes 7 to 14 days rather than a date. It is why a two-bedroom home here runs $7,857 – $10,476 instead of scaling straight with distance, and also why there is more handling and a looser schedule.

How these figures are calculated
At the Minneapolis end
For a local crew after delivery, the largest licensed carriers within 30 miles of Minneapolis: Bay and Bay (Eagan, 360 trucks), Beltmann Relocation Group (Roseville, 269 trucks), Berger Transfer & Storage Inc (Saint Paul, 221 trucks), Manning Transfer Inc (Blaine, 60 trucks).
Rules that apply to this move
Because the truck crosses from California into Minnesota, 49 CFR Part 375 applies: a written estimate before loading, no more than 110% of a non-binding estimate collected at delivery, and full-value protection unless you choose released value in writing. See binding vs non-binding estimates and valuation explained.
Before you book Roseville to Minneapolis
Insist on a survey
Over 1,746 miles the price is driven almost entirely by weight. A quote given without a video or in-home survey is a guess that gets revised upward on loading day, and at this distance the revision is expensive.
Keep full-value protection
It is the default on an interstate move. Signing it away for released value means 60 cents per pound, about $18 for a 30 lb television, after 1,746 miles of handling.
Arriving in Minneapolis
A local move inside Minneapolis later — across town, out of temporary housing — is billed by the hour: about $535 – $873 for a two-bedroom home and $903 – $1,614 for three bedrooms. The nearest cities we cover from Minneapolis are Saint Paul (about 10 mi), Rochester (about 90 mi), Sioux Falls (about 231 mi).
