We do not offer intrastate moves unless in California.

We know that moving across the country or even the next state over can be challenging. Planning, packing, loading, and unloading are all tedious and complicated. Plus, if the move is due to a new job position or school, it can be even more stressful. That’s where we can help. Sterling Van Lines is one of the nation's leading pioneers in small moves. We do cross-country moves from any state in the 48 contiguous United States to any other state. Sterling Van Lines has the experience you need to ensure that your valuable and irreplaceable items make it to their destination in the same condition they left in and on schedule.

Let us help you make your next move as smooth and simple as possible.

Cross Country Moves For Less

Sterling Van Lines has earned a reputation as America’s best small moves specialist for cross-country moves. We offer full-service cross-country moving with a two-man inside pickup and delivery to any destination in the 48 continental U.S. states.

We can help you and your family for a great price because our minimum load is 400 pounds, far less than our competitors. Other companies often require a minimum of 2,000 pounds and will charge you for it whether you use it or not. For small loads, you’ll get all the benefits of a large load. And we do not charge extra for blankets or padding.

What is a small move?

When some people think about moving cross country, they think along the lines of truckloads full of belongings and vehicles weighing thousands of pounds. Most moving companies want to move large loads, they often specialize in moving whole households.

But often, cross country moves can be on a much smaller scale. Downsizing a home, an estate move where the belongings are being divided up and sent to different locations, an elderly relative moving in with a family member, or perhaps one to two rooms worth of a home being moved to furnish a vacation property are all examples of smaller kinds of moves.

No matter the reason for a small cross country move Sterling Van Lines America’s Small Move Specialist. With only a 400-pound weight minimum, we can make your small move happen.
