Moving from St. Augustine to Newark is a long-distance move of roughly 1,002 road miles, heading northeast from Florida to New Jersey.

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 $5,020 to $7,470 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 17 h 59 min.

On the St. Augustine side there are 71 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (35 of them authorized for interstate work), and 2,782 around Newark (1,591 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 Newark.

St. Augustine has a population of about 16,000 and Newark about 323,808. Newark is the denser city (12,927 people per square mile versus 1,505 in St. Augustine), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. New Jersey is a higher-cost state than Florida, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that New Jersey does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from St. Augustine to Newark?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,010 to $2,990 for a studio, $3,010 to $4,480 for a one-bedroom, $5,020 to $7,470 for a two-bedroom, $8,030 to $11,950 for a three-bedroom and $11,050 to $16,430 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Newark from St. Augustine?

About 1,002 road miles (849 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 17 h 59 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 Florida into New Jersey 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 St. Augustine to Newark?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,480 to $2,090 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,910 to $2,820. 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 St. Augustine–Newark corridor.
