Long Distance Moving Study from Stevens Worldwide Van Lines

Each year tens of thousands of long-distance moves occur across America. Some involve people moving between neighboring states, others involving people moving across the country and others still international moves for people moving to or from the U.S.

Cross country moves like these give movers a lot of insight into how people are choosing to plan and execute their moves. Since this information helps us serve customers better, we thought it would be a good idea to take a closer look at them. With data gathered by the American Moving and Storage Association (AMSA), Stevens Worldwide Van Lines were able to put together a Long Distance Moving Study, and we decided to share what the findings were!

The study sampled over 150,000 interstate moves and shows where people moved to, how far they had to travel to move there and how much they took with them when they moved. The study above shows info for long distance moves in Ohio. For information about all the lower 48 states, check out the full study at Stevens Worldwide.

*Due to the nature of the study, covering distance driven for state-to-state relocations, data for Hawaii is not available.
