Reverse: Lowell → Kent

Moving from Kent to Lowell is a cross-country move of roughly 2,906 road miles, heading east from Washington to Massachusetts.

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 $9,500 to $14,130 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 7 to 14 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 50 hours (6 driving days).

On the Kent side there are 646 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (317 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.

Kent has a population of about 134,871 and Lowell about 119,971. Lowell is the denser city (8,497 people per square mile versus 4,041 in Kent), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Massachusetts does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $3,800 to $5,650 for a studio, $5,700 to $8,480 for a one-bedroom, $9,500 to $14,130 for a two-bedroom, $15,190 to $22,610 for a three-bedroom and $20,890 to $31,080 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lowell from Kent?

About 2,906 road miles (2,463 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 50 hours (6 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 7 to 14 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 Washington 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 Kent to Lowell?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $4,040 to $5,700 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,610 to $5,310. 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 Kent–Lowell corridor.
