Reverse: High Point → Winston-Salem

The route from Winston-Salem, NC to High Point, NC covers roughly 20 miles by road, a southeast-bound trip that falls into the local move category for pricing purposes.

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 38 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,070 and $1,600, 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 274 around High Point (195 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 High Point.

Winston-Salem has a population of about 257,271 and High Point about 120,571. The two cities have comparable density (1,881 and 2,022 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Winston-Salem to High Point?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $560 to $830 for a studio, $660 to $980 for a one-bedroom, $1,070 to $1,600 for a two-bedroom, $1,680 to $2,500 for a three-bedroom and $2,530 to $3,770 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is High Point from Winston-Salem?

About 20 road miles (17 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 38 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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Winston-Salem and High Point 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Winston-Salem to High Point?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $170 to $240 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,040 to $1,530. 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 Winston-Salem–High Point corridor.
