I would not trust a moving company to move the guns. I 've heard more than a few stories about things getting stolen, so I would suggest that you figure out a way to lock the guns into your pickup.
How about if you get a special box made that will fit perfectly inside your pickup bed. Create something that looks plain and simple but would take criminals a long time to break into. Perhaps a metal locker with a wooden crate outside and steel banding around the wood. Label the outside something like pet supplies or water filters, plumbing supplies.
I believe you mentioned that the truck bed can be locked, so make sure it gets locked.
I have some friends who traveled from Phonix to Idaho in one day by driving in shifts, so I know it can be done. Send the safe(s) ahead so when you get there the guns can be put directly into the safes assuming you need more than one safe.
Loading and unloading the crate might require quite a bit of work unless you have help and a secure place to load and unload. You certainly don't want nosy people checking out your load. Whatever you do, don't tell more people than you need to tell.
