Your options
Is a shared truck cheaper than a dedicated truck to Utah?
It depends on volume. A shared load is $11 per cubic foot, 400 cubic foot minimum ($4,400), so it costs less than the $6,500 dedicated truck only up to about 590 cubic feet, and delivery can take up to 21 days. Above that, the dedicated truck costs less.
| Option | Price | Delivery |
|---|---|---|
| Dedicated truck (One Stop) | $6,500 | 2–3 days |
| Shared load (One Stop) | $11 per cu ft, 400 cu ft minimum ($4,400) | Up to 21 days |
| Portable container (One Stop) | $99 or $175 a month; shipping to Utah quoted in writing | Quoted with the shipping |
| Rental truck | Rental, fuel and your own time | You drive it |
Delivering in Salt Lake City
Which Salt Lake City areas do you deliver to?
All of Salt Lake City and the Salt Lake Valley, plus Utah County to the south and Davis and Weber counties to the north. Hillside streets in the Avenues and on the east bench can be steep and narrow, so tell us about the street and driveway when you book; a $750 shuttle truck reaches places a full-size truck can’t.

After you arrive
What do I need to do after moving to Salt Lake City?
Transfer your driver license at a Utah Driver License Division office: bring proof of identity, Social Security number and Utah address, surrender your old license, and pass an eye test and a 25-question open-book test. Then register your car with the Utah DMV and start electric service with Rocky Mountain Power before the truck arrives.

Seasons
When is the best time to move to Salt Lake City?
Late spring to early fall is easiest. The truck runs I-15 through desert and mountain country, and winter storms can slow it between St. George and Salt Lake City, so a December to March move needs a little slack around delivery day. In summer, plan for heat on the Mojave and Las Vegas stretch.
