United Van Lines vs North American Van Lines

We hold no basis to prefer one over the other. We publish no numeric score for moving companies, and the records we hold for both are the same fields: registration, operating authority, founding year, coverage, and an estimated price range. United Van Lines is described as best for long-distance moves with full packing; North American Van Lines is described as best for cross-country moves with high-value items. Check each company's USDOT record on FMCSA SAFER for authority status and complaint history, then compare binding-not-to-exceed estimates for your own move.

For a typical 2-bedroom interstate move, United Van Lines estimates land around $3,100–$7,400 and North American Van Lines estimates land around $3,000–$7,200. Actual quotes depend on weight, distance, service level, date, and availability.

United Van Lines operates under USDOT 077949 and North American Van Lines operates under USDOT 070851. Always verify the specific entity quoting your move on FMCSA SAFER before signing an estimate.

Look up each company by its USDOT number on FMCSA SAFER, which publishes complaint and crash history for the registered entity, and check the state regulator where the move starts. Ratings published by third parties are not shown here unless the specific profile they came from has been recorded.

For interstate moves, ask for a binding or binding-not-to-exceed estimate after an in-home or video survey. Sight-unseen non-binding interstate quotes are not reliable and tend to grow on delivery day.
