Cleveland, OH → Scranton, PA · Regional long-distance move
About 368 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,830–$4,220, delivery in 1–3 days, 638 carriers on the Cleveland side and 264 in Scranton.
Moving from Cleveland to Scranton is a regional long-distance move of roughly 368 road miles, heading east from Ohio to Pennsylvania.
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 $2,830 to $4,220 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 7 h 3 min.
On the Cleveland side there are 638 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (374 of them authorized for interstate work), and 264 around Scranton (187 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 Scranton.
Cleveland has a population of about 363,608 and Scranton about 76,000. Cleveland is considerably denser (4,796 people per square mile versus 3,016), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

About 368 road miles (311 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 7 h 3 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 Ohio into Pennsylvania 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 $530 to $750 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,350 to $1,980. 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 Cleveland–Scranton corridor.
