Scranton, PA → Quincy, MA · Regional long-distance move
About 291 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,890–$4,300, delivery in 1–3 days, 264 carriers on the Scranton side and 456 in Quincy.
Quincy sits about 291 miles east of Scranton, which makes this an interstate relocation from Pennsylvania to Massachusetts 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 $2,890 to $4,300 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 5 h 43 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 456 around Quincy (277 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 Quincy.
Scranton has a population of about 76,000 and Quincy about 103,173. Quincy is the denser city (6,123 people per square mile versus 3,016 in Scranton), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Massachusetts is a higher-cost state than Pennsylvania, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 291 road miles (247 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 5 h 43 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 Pennsylvania into Massachusetts 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 $450 to $630 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,280 to $1,880. 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–Quincy corridor.
