Our Moving Standards

Wheatland Van Lines is not a national aggregator or a broker that farms out your move to the lowest bidder. We are a Midwest-based direct carrier with active operations in Iowa. Our crews know the local roads, building types, and seasonal conditions. And because we handle every move ourselves, you have one point of contact from quote to delivery — not a call center.

When you book a local move within Iowa, our crew arrives with a fully equipped truck and all materials — moving blankets, straps, dollies, and floor protection. We do a walkthrough with you before loading, handle all furniture disassembly and reassembly, and do a final check with you at delivery. Pricing is hourly with a 2-hour minimum and no hidden fees.

Long distance moves from Iowa begin with a binding written quote based on your inventory and destination. We schedule pickup within your requested window, provide GPS tracking during transport, and give you a delivery window 24 hours before arrival. Average transit to neighboring states: 2–4 days. Coast to coast: 7–10 days.

Wheatland Van Lines holds USDOT #3181246 and MC #126479, issued by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. We carry full cargo insurance, general liability, and workers' compensation — active on every local and long distance move in Minnesota. Our credentials are publicly verifiable at safer.fmcsa.dot.gov.

FAQ

What is the average cost of moving within Minnesota?

 Local moves within Minnesota (under 50 miles) typically cost $120–$200 per hour for a 2-person crew and truck. A standard 2-bedroom move takes 4–6 hours. Long distance moves out of Minnesota start at $2,000 for a studio and $3,500+ for a 2-3 bedroom home.

Do you offer winter moving services in Minnesota?

Yes. We move year-round in Minnesota, including in January and February. Our crews are trained for cold-weather moves — we use floor protection, blanket wrapping, and heated trucks to protect your belongings.

For summer moves (June–August) we recommend 4–6 weeks advance booking. For fall/winter moves, 2–3 weeks is typically sufficient. Call (816) 425-2847 to check current availability.
