The route from Yonkers, NY to Newark, NJ covers roughly 26 miles by road, a southwest-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 49 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,340 and $2,000, before packing or storage.

Yonkers has a population of about 212,603 and Newark about 323,808. The two cities have comparable density (11,754 and 12,927 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 Yonkers to Newark?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $710 to $1,050 for a studio, $830 to $1,240 for a one-bedroom, $1,340 to $2,000 for a two-bedroom, $2,090 to $3,120 for a three-bedroom and $3,150 to $4,680 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Newark from Yonkers?

About 26 road miles (22 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 49 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from New York 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 Yonkers to Newark?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $180 to $250 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 Yonkers–Newark corridor.
