Reverse: Lowell → Myrtle Beach

Moving from Myrtle Beach to Lowell is a long-distance move of roughly 874 road miles, heading northeast from South Carolina to Massachusetts.

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 $4,630 to $6,890 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 15 h 46 min.

On the Myrtle Beach side there are 148 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (97 of them authorized for interstate work), and 215 around Lowell (152 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 Lowell.

Myrtle Beach has a population of about 39,000 and Lowell about 119,971. Lowell is the denser city (8,497 people per square mile versus 1,524 in Myrtle Beach), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Massachusetts is a higher-cost state than South Carolina, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Myrtle Beach to Lowell?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,850 to $2,760 for a studio, $2,780 to $4,140 for a one-bedroom, $4,630 to $6,890 for a two-bedroom, $7,410 to $11,030 for a three-bedroom and $10,190 to $15,170 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Lowell from Myrtle Beach?

About 874 road miles (741 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 15 h 46 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 South Carolina into Massachusetts 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 Myrtle Beach to Lowell?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,200 to $1,690 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,800 to $2,650. 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 Myrtle Beach–Lowell corridor.
