How far is Atlanta from California driving?

I recently got a new job and need to relocate to Atlanta. I plan to drive all my belongings for the move to keep costs low and maybe visit some national parks. How far will the drive be?

Good luck with your move! The drive between California and
Atlanta
is around 2306 miles via I-40 E. It will take about 33 hours and 15 minutes to drive non-stop, but we recommend taking regular breaks along the way.
Since it’s such a long drive, making sure your car is in good working condition is essential. Check your tires, signals, brakes, and fluids before embarking on your journey. This will prevent major car troubles during your drive to Atlanta.
If you’re up for a bit of adventure, why not transform the drive into a mini road trip? Exploring different attractions on the way definitely makes this long drive more interesting. Here are some ideas of where you could visit:
  • Joshua Tree National Park
  • The Grand Canyon
  • Antelope Canyon
  • Zion National Park
  • Carlsbad Caverns National Park
  • Hot Springs National Park
If you plan to visit a few national parks, you can get an America the Beautiful annual pass, which allows you to enter 2,000 federal recreation sites across the country—including all national parks.
Once you move to Atlanta, you will need to update your
car insurance
to meet the state-mandated minimum coverage requirements.
