Morristown, NJ → Baltimore, MD · Regional long-distance move
About 181 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,510–$3,740, delivery in 1–2 days, 168 carriers on the Morristown side and 1,335 in Baltimore.
Moving from Morristown to Baltimore is a regional long-distance move of roughly 181 road miles, heading southwest from New Jersey to Maryland.
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 $2,510 to $3,740 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 2 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 3 h 49 min.
On the Morristown side there are 168 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (119 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,335 around Baltimore (786 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 Baltimore.
Morristown has a population of about 20,000 and Baltimore about 569,997. The two cities have comparable density (7,008 and 7,240 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

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.
Yes. Crossing from New Jersey into Maryland 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 $340 to $470 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,180 to $1,740. 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 Morristown–Baltimore corridor.
