Moving from Scranton to Jonesboro is a long-distance move of roughly 1,057 road miles, heading west from Pennsylvania to Arkansas.
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 $4,530 to $6,730 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 18 h 55 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 42 around Jonesboro (29 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 Jonesboro.
Scranton has a population of about 76,000 and Jonesboro about 81,000. Scranton is considerably denser (3,016 people per square mile versus 980), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Arkansas than in Pennsylvania, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.
