Moving from Dearborn to Edison is a long-distance move of roughly 561 road miles, heading east from Michigan to New Jersey.

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 $3,750 to $5,570 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 10 h 22 min.

On the Dearborn side there are 827 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (380 of them authorized for interstate work), and 665 around Edison (476 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 Edison.

Dearborn has a population of about 105,611 and Edison about 109,077. The two cities have comparable density (4,544 and 3,574 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. New Jersey is a higher-cost state than Michigan, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Dearborn to Edison?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,500 to $2,230 for a studio, $2,250 to $3,340 for a one-bedroom, $3,750 to $5,570 for a two-bedroom, $5,990 to $8,920 for a three-bedroom and $8,240 to $12,260 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Edison from Dearborn?

About 561 road miles (476 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 10 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 Michigan into New Jersey 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 Dearborn to Edison?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $880 to $1,240 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,520 to $2,240. 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 Dearborn–Edison corridor.
