Milwaukee, WI → Green Bay, WI · Short-haul move
About 119 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,950–$2,900, delivery in 1–2 days, 604 carriers on the Milwaukee side and 111 in Green Bay.
Moving from Milwaukee to Green Bay is a short-haul move of roughly 119 road miles, heading north within Wisconsin.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 45 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,950 and $2,900, before packing or storage.
On the Milwaukee side there are 604 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (360 of them authorized for interstate work), and 111 around Green Bay (52 interstate). For an in-state 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 Green Bay.
Milwaukee has a population of about 562,407 and Green Bay about 106,675. Milwaukee is considerably denser (6,000 people per square mile versus 2,360), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

About 119 road miles (101 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 45 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 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.
No. Because both Milwaukee and Green Bay are in Wisconsin, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $270 to $380 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,130 to $1,660. 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 Milwaukee–Green Bay corridor.
