Moving within vs moving out of Montana

Let's see how many people move within Montana versus those who moved from Treasure State to another state.

Moved Within MT
32%
Moved out of MT
68%

Out of all household moves in the state of Montana, 32% of them have been local ones – that is, starting and finishing within the limits of the state. The percentage of all interstate moves is 68%.

Statistically, Montanans have performed twice as many interstate moves as local ones. When getting ready for a cross-country move, it’s imperative that the preparation period start as early in the process as possible. Finding a trustworthy cross-country mover is always at the top of anyone’s moving checklist.

Who regulates Montana local movers

Local movers in Montana are required by law to have valid PSC numbers issued by their regulatory body: the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT). Make sure you hire the professional services of a moving company that is properly licensed to operate in order to prevent the misfortune of having to file a dispute against your future relocation partner.

Agency: Montana Department of Transportation (MDT)
Address: PO Box 201001, Helena, MT 59620-1001
Phone: (406) 444-6200
