West Palm Beach, FL → Worcester, MA · Long-distance move
About 1,382 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,180–$9,200, delivery in 3–7 days, 446 carriers on the West Palm Beach side and 226 in Worcester.
Worcester sits about 1,382 miles north of West Palm Beach, which makes this an interstate relocation from Florida to Massachusetts that most movers classify as a 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 $6,180 to $9,200 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 24 hours (3 driving days).
On the West Palm Beach side there are 446 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (162 of them authorized for interstate work), and 226 around Worcester (135 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 Worcester.
West Palm Beach has a population of about 127,189 and Worcester about 213,862. Worcester is the denser city (5,522 people per square mile versus 2,182 in West Palm Beach), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Massachusetts is a higher-cost state than Florida, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that Massachusetts does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 1,382 road miles (1,171 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 24 hours (3 driving days).
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.
Yes. Crossing from Florida 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 $2,020 to $2,850 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,250 to $3,310. 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 West Palm Beach–Worcester corridor.
