Dayton, OH → Green Bay, WI · Regional long-distance move
About 449 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,070–$4,570, delivery in 1–3 days, 349 carriers on the Dayton side and 111 in Green Bay.
Green Bay sits about 449 miles northwest of Dayton, which makes this an interstate relocation from Ohio to Wisconsin that most movers classify as a regional long-distance move.
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 $3,070 to $4,570 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 8 h 27 min.
On the Dayton side there are 349 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (240 of them authorized for interstate work), and 111 around Green Bay (52 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 Green Bay.
Dayton has a population of about 136,688 and Green Bay about 106,675. The two cities have comparable density (2,467 and 2,360 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 449 road miles (380 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 8 h 27 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 Wisconsin 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 $610 to $860 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,420 to $2,090. 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 Dayton–Green Bay corridor.
