The route
A genuine long haul at 2,480 miles from New York 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 $11,160 – $14,880 instead of scaling straight with distance, and also why there is more handling and a looser schedule.

How these figures are calculated
At the Saint George end

Rules that apply to this move
Because the truck crosses from New York 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 Albany to Saint George
Insist on a survey
Over 2,480 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 2,480 miles of handling.
