Newport Beach sits about 82 miles northwest of San Diego, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a short-haul move.
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 7 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,750 and $2,610, before packing or storage.
On the San Diego side there are 626 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (217 of them authorized for interstate work), and 298 around Newport Beach (107 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 Newport Beach.
San Diego has a population of about 1.4 million and Newport Beach about 85,000. The two cities have comparable density (4,256 and 3,582 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.
