Indianapolis to Cincinnati — The Short Hop East on I-74
Of every out-of-state route we run, Cincinnati is the shortest: roughly 110 miles east on I-74, about an hour and fifty minutes of driving with not a single toll booth between the two cities. That short, free corridor is exactly why this run carries the lowest flat-rate pricing of anything we move across a state line.
Short, but still an interstate job
Crossing into Ohio puts the move under our US DOT and MC authority no matter how brief the drive is, with $1M of cargo coverage on the load. The short distance changes the price, not the way we work it — one truck reserved for you, our own W-2 crew, and your belongings kept entirely separate from anyone else’s shipment.
A quote that doesn’t move
We survey the home and hand you a binding written flat rate. Whatever that page says is what we collect when the doors open in Cincinnati — no per-pound re-weigh, no surprise fuel line, no add-ons invented at the curb. Everything is pad-wrapped and counted onto the inventory before it loads, and the truck stays GPS-tracked the whole way.
Parking is the real puzzle here
Cincinnati’s geography does the work the highway doesn’t. The hillside streets and the tight blocks through Over-the-Rhine can leave nowhere obvious to put a moving truck, so we scout the access ahead of time and pull a parking permit when the spot demands one. That keeps the crew unloading instead of circling the block with your furniture aboard.
One shift, start to finish
Under two hours of driving means we load in the morning and unload the same afternoon on nearly every home, studio through three-bedroom. The route runs all year; the only thing we watch for is an Ohio River valley fog or a glaze of January ice slowing the morning start, and we leave a short buffer when the forecast calls for it. The work carries our written no-damage guarantee.
