A long-distance move, run by a crew that lives here
Better Route is based in Caldwell, in the middle of the Treasure Valley. When you move here, the end of your move is our home turf: we know the towns, the neighborhoods and the roads you're headed for.
We come to your current home, load your belongings with care, and deliver them to your new home in Idaho. Whether you're coming from across the country or a few states away, the plan is built around your dates.
What's included
- A walkthrough by video call, so we see what's moving without you flying in first.
- A free written quote before you book.
- Furniture protected with moving blankets and shrink wrap, and floors covered at both homes.
- Furniture taken apart and put back together: beds, tables, desks and more.
- Packing, full or partial, if you want it. More on packing.
- Storage if your Idaho home isn't ready when your things arrive. How storage works.
- Unloading and placement in the right rooms at your new home.
Licensed for interstate moves
Moving household goods across state lines takes federal operating authority. Better Route's numbers are USDOT 4385707 and MC-1725302. You can look both up on the FMCSA website before you book. We're licensed and insured.
Moving out of Idaho, or across it
We move people out of Idaho too, and between towns in the state, including places like Coeur d'Alene, Idaho Falls, Sun Valley and Twin Falls. Tell us both addresses and your dates and we'll plan it the same way.
