The route from Pittsburgh, PA to Youngstown, OH covers roughly 68 miles by road, a northwest-bound trip that falls into the short-haul move category for pricing purposes.

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 1 h 52 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,300 and $1,940, before packing or storage.

On the Pittsburgh side there are 450 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (241 of them authorized for interstate work), and 141 around Youngstown (90 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 Youngstown.

Pittsburgh has a population of about 307,632 and Youngstown about 59,000. Pittsburgh is considerably denser (5,469 people per square mile versus 1,770), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Tips for this move

For a move under about 150 miles you can often choose between an hourly and a flat rate—ask for both.
Confirm whether travel time between Pittsburgh and Youngstown is billed one way or round trip.
A single-day move is realistic here; schedule loading in the morning so the crew arrives in Youngstown with daylight to spare.
Check Pennsylvania intrastate mover rules; many states require a state permit in addition to a USDOT number.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Pittsburgh to Youngstown?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $730 to $1,080 for a studio, $830 to $1,240 for a one-bedroom, $1,300 to $1,940 for a two-bedroom, $1,970 to $2,930 for a three-bedroom and $2,890 to $4,290 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Youngstown from Pittsburgh?

About 68 road miles (57 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 1 h 52 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Pennsylvania into Ohio 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 Pittsburgh to Youngstown?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $220 to $310 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,080 to $1,590. 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 Pittsburgh–Youngstown corridor.
