Reverse: Lowell → Concord

Moving from Concord to Lowell is a local move of roughly 50 road miles, heading south from New Hampshire to Massachusetts.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 1 h 34 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,420 and $2,120, before packing or storage.

On the Concord side there are 52 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (40 of them authorized for interstate work), and 215 around Lowell (152 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 Lowell.

Concord has a population of about 45,000 and Lowell about 119,971. Lowell is the denser city (8,497 people per square mile versus 688 in Concord), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Massachusetts is a higher-cost state than New Hampshire, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that Massachusetts does collect a state income tax, unlike New Hampshire, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Concord to Lowell?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $780 to $1,160 for a studio, $900 to $1,340 for a one-bedroom, $1,420 to $2,120 for a two-bedroom, $2,180 to $3,240 for a three-bedroom and $3,230 to $4,800 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lowell from Concord?

About 50 road miles (43 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 1 h 34 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from New Hampshire into Massachusetts 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 Concord to Lowell?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $200 to $280 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,060 to $1,570. 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 Concord–Lowell corridor.
