Moving from Springfield to Augusta is a long-distance move of roughly 1,257 road miles, heading northeast from Illinois to Maine.

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 $5,440 to $8,100 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 22 h 22 min.

On the Springfield side there are 58 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (45 of them authorized for interstate work), and 129 around Augusta (50 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 Augusta.

Springfield has a population of about 112,989 and Augusta about 19,000. Springfield is considerably denser (1,872 people per square mile versus 343), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Springfield to Augusta?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,180 to $3,240 for a studio, $3,270 to $4,860 for a one-bedroom, $5,440 to $8,100 for a two-bedroom, $8,710 to $12,960 for a three-bedroom and $11,980 to $17,820 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Augusta from Springfield?

About 1,257 road miles (1,065 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 22 h 22 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Illinois into Maine 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Springfield to Augusta?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,740 to $2,460 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,140 to $3,150. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Springfield–Augusta corridor.
