Bethlehem, PA → Burlington, VT · Regional long-distance move
About 340 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,880–$4,280, delivery in 1–3 days, 402 carriers on the Bethlehem side and 73 in Burlington.
Moving from Bethlehem to Burlington is a regional long-distance move of roughly 340 road miles, heading north from Pennsylvania to Vermont.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $2,880 to $4,280 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 6 h 34 min.
On the Bethlehem side there are 402 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (297 of them authorized for interstate work), and 73 around Burlington (39 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Burlington.
Bethlehem has a population of about 78,000 and Burlington about 45,000. The two cities have comparable density (3,964 and 4,343 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 340 road miles (288 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 34 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Pennsylvania into Vermont makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $500 to $700 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,320 to $1,950. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Bethlehem–Burlington corridor.
