Quincy, MA → Lynn, MA · Local move
About 18 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,320–$1,960, delivery in 0–1 days, 456 carriers on the Quincy side and 403 in Lynn.
The route from Quincy, MA to Lynn, MA covers roughly 18 miles by road, a north-bound trip that falls into the local 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 34 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,320 and $1,960, before packing or storage.
On the Quincy side there are 456 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (277 of them authorized for interstate work), and 403 around Lynn (224 interstate). For an in-state 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 Lynn.
Quincy has a population of about 103,173 and Lynn about 104,236. Lynn is the denser city (9,463 people per square mile versus 6,123 in Quincy), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

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.
No. Because both Quincy and Lynn are in Massachusetts, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $170 to $240 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,040 to $1,520. 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 Quincy–Lynn corridor.
