Scranton, PA → Atlanta, GA · Long-distance move
About 841 road miles heading southwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,190–$6,230, delivery in 2–5 days, 264 carriers on the Scranton side and 3,398 in Atlanta.
Atlanta sits about 841 miles southwest of Scranton, which makes this an interstate relocation from Pennsylvania to Georgia that most movers classify as a 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 $4,190 to $6,230 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 15 h 12 min.
On the Scranton side there are 264 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (187 of them authorized for interstate work), and 3,398 around Atlanta (1,586 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 Atlanta.
Scranton has a population of about 76,000 and Atlanta about 529,110. The two cities have comparable density (3,016 and 3,686 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 841 road miles (712 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 15 h 12 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 Pennsylvania into Georgia 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 $1,160 to $1,640 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,770 to $2,600. 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 Scranton–Atlanta corridor.
