Between the largest cities of the two states—Louisville and Newark—the road distance is about 751 miles, which puts a typical move in the long-distance move bracket with a delivery window of 2 to 5 days.
Kentucky has about 4.5 million residents and New Jersey about 9.3 million. New Jersey is a higher-cost state than Kentucky; plan for larger deposits and pricier destination-side services.
