Moving from Springfield to Manchester is a short-haul move of roughly 97 road miles, heading northeast from Massachusetts to New Hampshire.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 22 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,680 and $2,500, before packing or storage.

On the Springfield side there are 213 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (155 of them authorized for interstate work), and 57 around Manchester (44 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 Manchester.

Springfield has a population of about 154,702 and Manchester about 116,818. Springfield is considerably denser (4,888 people per square mile versus 3,494), 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 New Hampshire than in Massachusetts, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. New Hampshire levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Tips for this move

A single-day move is realistic here; schedule loading in the morning so the crew arrives in Manchester with daylight to spare.
Check Massachusetts intrastate mover rules; many states require a state permit in addition to a USDOT number.
Group fragile items and tell the crew which boxes go in the cab or on top.
For a move under about 150 miles you can often choose between an hourly and a flat rate—ask for both.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $970 to $1,440 for a studio, $1,090 to $1,620 for a one-bedroom, $1,680 to $2,500 for a two-bedroom, $2,500 to $3,720 for a three-bedroom and $3,610 to $5,380 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Manchester from Springfield?

About 97 road miles (82 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 22 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Massachusetts into New Hampshire 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 Manchester?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $250 to $350 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,110 to $1,630. 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–Manchester corridor.
