Manchester, NH → Cherry Hill, NJ · Regional long-distance move
About 330 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,090–$4,590, delivery in 1–3 days, 57 carriers on the Manchester side and 838 in Cherry Hill.
The route from Manchester, NH to Cherry Hill, NJ covers roughly 330 miles by road, a southwest-bound trip that falls into the regional 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 $3,090 to $4,590 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 6 h 23 min.
On the Manchester side there are 57 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (44 of them authorized for interstate work), and 838 around Cherry Hill (563 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 Cherry Hill.
Manchester has a population of about 116,818 and Cherry Hill about 74,000. Cherry Hill is the denser city (20,442 people per square mile versus 3,494 in Manchester), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that New Jersey does collect a state income tax, unlike New Hampshire, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 330 road miles (280 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 23 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 New Hampshire 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $490 to $690 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,310 to $1,930. 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 Manchester–Cherry Hill corridor.
