Indianapolis to Columbus

The Indianapolis to Columbus move, handled

Columbus is about 175 miles east of Indianapolis, roughly two and three-quarter hours straight along I-70. An Indianapolis to Columbus move is a planned interstate job, usually completed in a day or two depending on the size of the home and the packing involved. We keep your belongings with our crew from load to delivery.

A Columbus move could be into a campus-area apartment near Ohio State, a family home in the suburbs like Dublin or Westerville, or a downtown high-rise with building rules. We plan the access at both ends, pad and wrap for the highway run, and place everything carefully when we arrive.

If your dates do not line up across two states, we can store your belongings between the move-out and the delivery. Need full packing for the interstate haul? That is exactly what we do. Get an instant online quote or call 317-284-1900 to plan your Indianapolis to Columbus move.
