Winston-Salem, NC → Boone, NC · Short-haul move
About 93 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,410–$2,100, delivery in 1–2 days, 254 carriers on the Winston-Salem side and 108 in Boone.
Moving from Winston-Salem to Boone is a short-haul move of roughly 93 road miles, heading west within North Carolina.
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 18 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,410 and $2,100, before packing or storage.
On the Winston-Salem side there are 254 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (182 of them authorized for interstate work), and 108 around Boone (84 interstate). For an in-state 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 Boone.
Winston-Salem has a population of about 257,271 and Boone about 19,000. Boone is the denser city (2,991 people per square mile versus 1,881 in Winston-Salem), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

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.
No. Because both Winston-Salem and Boone are in North Carolina, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $250 to $350 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,100 to $1,620. 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 Winston-Salem–Boone corridor.
