The route
A genuine long haul at 1,760 miles from Louisiana to Nevada. 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 $7,920 – $10,560 instead of scaling straight with distance, and also why there is more handling and a looser schedule.

How these figures are calculated
At the Las Vegas end
For a local crew after delivery, the largest licensed carriers within 30 miles of Las Vegas: Us Safe Moving LLC (Las Vegas, 25 trucks), All My Sons Moving & Storage of Las Vegas LLC (North Las Vegas, 18 trucks), Royal Moving and Storage LLC (Henderson, 16 trucks), Ace World Wide of Nevada (North Las Vegas, 14 trucks).
Rules that apply to this move
Because the truck crosses from Louisiana into Nevada, 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 New Orleans to Las Vegas
Insist on a survey
Over 1,760 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 1,760 miles of handling.
Arriving in Las Vegas
A local move inside Las Vegas later — across town, out of temporary housing — is billed by the hour: about $465 – $761 for a two-bedroom home and $777 – $1,398 for three bedrooms. The nearest cities we cover from Las Vegas are Paradise (about 7 mi), Spring Valley (about 9 mi), North Las Vegas (about 11 mi).
