The route from Lowell, MA to Boca Raton, FL covers roughly 1,450 miles by road, a southwest-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $6,370 to $9,480 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 25 hours (3 driving days).

On the Lowell side there are 215 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (152 of them authorized for interstate work), and 743 around Boca Raton (316 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 Boca Raton.

Lowell has a population of about 119,971 and Boca Raton about 101,582. Lowell is considerably denser (8,497 people per square mile versus 3,336), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Florida than in Massachusetts, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Florida levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Lowell to Boca Raton?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,550 to $3,790 for a studio, $3,820 to $5,690 for a one-bedroom, $6,370 to $9,480 for a two-bedroom, $10,190 to $15,160 for a three-bedroom and $14,010 to $20,850 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Boca Raton from Lowell?

About 1,450 road miles (1,228 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 25 hours (3 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Massachusetts into Florida 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 Lowell to Boca Raton?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,090 to $2,950 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,310 to $3,400. 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 Lowell–Boca Raton corridor.
