Reverse: Silver Spring → Burlington

Moving from Burlington to Silver Spring is a long-distance move of roughly 503 road miles, heading southwest from Vermont to Maryland.

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 $3,640 to $5,420 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 9 h 22 min.

On the Burlington side there are 73 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (39 of them authorized for interstate work), and 813 around Silver Spring (494 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 Silver Spring.

Burlington has a population of about 45,000 and Silver Spring about 82,000. Silver Spring is the denser city (10,277 people per square mile versus 4,343 in Burlington), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Burlington to Silver Spring?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,460 to $2,170 for a studio, $2,190 to $3,250 for a one-bedroom, $3,640 to $5,420 for a two-bedroom, $5,830 to $8,670 for a three-bedroom and $8,020 to $11,930 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Silver Spring from Burlington?

About 503 road miles (426 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 9 h 22 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Vermont into Maryland 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Burlington to Silver Spring?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $820 to $1,150 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,470 to $2,160. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Burlington–Silver Spring corridor.
