Portsmouth, NH → Binghamton, NY · Regional long-distance move
About 318 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,130–$4,660, delivery in 1–3 days, 51 carriers on the Portsmouth side and 77 in Binghamton.
Binghamton sits about 318 miles west of Portsmouth, which makes this an interstate relocation from New Hampshire to New York that most movers classify as a regional long-distance move.
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 $3,130 to $4,660 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 6 h 11 min.
On the Portsmouth side there are 51 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (38 of them authorized for interstate work), and 77 around Binghamton (33 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 Binghamton.
Portsmouth has a population of about 23,000 and Binghamton about 47,000. Binghamton is the denser city (4,578 people per square mile versus 1,402 in Portsmouth), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New York is a higher-cost state than New Hampshire, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that New York does collect a state income tax, unlike New Hampshire, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 318 road miles (269 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 11 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Hampshire into New York 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 $480 to $670 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,300 to $1,920. 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 Portsmouth–Binghamton corridor.
