Woodbridge, NJ → Bethlehem, PA · Short-haul move
About 67 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,430–$2,130, delivery in 1–2 days, 812 carriers on the Woodbridge side and 402 in Bethlehem.
The route from Woodbridge, NJ to Bethlehem, PA covers roughly 67 miles by road, a west-bound trip that falls into the short-haul 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 1 h 51 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,430 and $2,130, before packing or storage.
On the Woodbridge side there are 812 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (558 of them authorized for interstate work), and 402 around Bethlehem (297 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 Bethlehem.
Woodbridge has a population of about 104,802 and Bethlehem about 78,000. The two cities have comparable density (4,448 and 3,964 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Pennsylvania than in New Jersey, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $800 to $1,190 for a studio, $910 to $1,360 for a one-bedroom, $1,430 to $2,130 for a two-bedroom, $2,170 to $3,220 for a three-bedroom and $3,180 to $4,720 for four or more bedrooms.

About 67 road miles (57 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 1 h 51 min.
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.
Yes. Crossing from New Jersey into Pennsylvania 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 $220 to $310 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,080 to $1,590. 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 Woodbridge–Bethlehem corridor.
