About 89 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,700–$2,530, delivery in 1–2 days, 4,150 carriers on the New York side and 838 in Cherry Hill.
Moving from New York to Cherry Hill is a short-haul move of roughly 89 road miles, heading southwest from New York to New Jersey.
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 14 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,700 and $2,530, before packing or storage.
On the New York side there are 4,150 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (2,180 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.
New York has a population of about 8.6 million and Cherry Hill about 74,000. New York is considerably denser (29,298 people per square mile versus 20,442), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.
Yes. Crossing from New York 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 $240 to $340 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,100 to $1,620. 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 New York–Cherry Hill corridor.
