Moving from Scranton to Richmond is a regional long-distance move of roughly 336 road miles, heading south from Pennsylvania to Virginia.
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 $2,860 to $4,260 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 6 h 30 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 400 around Richmond (215 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 Richmond.
Scranton has a population of about 76,000 and Richmond about 237,257. The two cities have comparable density (3,016 and 3,783 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.
