The route
A genuine long haul at 2,222 miles from Florida to Utah. 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 $9,999 – $13,332 instead of scaling straight with distance, and also why there is more handling and a looser schedule.

Worked example: a two-bedroom home, Saint Petersburg to Saint George
2,222 miles × 2.0 (two-bedroom size multiplier) × $2.50 (full-service rate) = $11,110. The range runs 10% under that to 20% over: $9,999 to $13,332, transport only. Every parameter is on the methodology page; moving cost per mile explains why the rate falls with distance.
How many people move from Saint Petersburg to Saint George
The county-to-county table of the Census Bureau's American Community Survey (2016–2020) has no estimate for Pinellas County, FL to Washington County, UT, but the wider metro table does: about 3 people a year (±6) moved from the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL metro area to the St. George, UT metro area. The margin of error is as large as the estimate, so read it as a handful of households rather than a count.
At state level, the 2024 survey counts about 3,331 people a year (±1,703) moving from Florida to Utah and about 5,748 people a year (±2,973) from Utah to Florida — a net gain for Florida of about 2,417 people a year.

Rules that apply to this move
Because the truck crosses from Florida into Utah, 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 Saint Petersburg to Saint George
Insist on a survey
Over 2,222 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 2,222 miles of handling.
