Average cost of long-distance movers in Burlington
In Burlington, you can expect to pay about $200 per hour for professional movers. To get a reliable estimate, even the most reputable interstate movers will need specifics about your move’s distance and volume.
Factors that affect the cost of moving from Burlington
- Moving method: Your budget will look very different depending on whether you go full-service, use a container, or rent your own truck. Choose based on how much labor you’re willing to handle yourself.
- Distance from start to finish: Longer moves mean higher transportation costs. Relocating across several states from Burlington will cost more than a nearby in-state move.
- Extras you request: Need help packing? Unloading? Storage? Those perks add convenience — but they also add to your bottom line.
- The size of your move: Movers charge based on total weight or volume. If you’re taking everything, costs will rise. Lightening the load before leaving Burlington can help.
- Time of year you move: Summer rates are almost always higher. If you want a better deal, try planning for the off-season or mid-month window.

FAQs
What else should I know about moving out of Vermont?
A moving company helping you move out of Vermont must be properly licensed and have a US Department of Transportation number. Of course, all of the Burlington movers we’ve included on this list have everything in order but you can check for yourself on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s database.
If you’re moving from one state to another, you’ll want to familiarize yourself with Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move document from the FMCSA.
Should I choose a local or national mover for my Burlington relocation?
For most moves starting in Burlington, a local moving company will be the most affordable route. There are 5 local movers to pick from, and we’ve already spotlighted the best options so you don’t have to sort through them all.
When your move takes you beyond Vermont, however, a national moving company may be worth the higher price tag thanks to their long-distance expertise and streamlined logistics.
When is the cheapest time of year to move away from Burlington?
Moving companies in Burlington are usually slower in November and December due to the average winter low of 9°F, the holidays and kids being in school, so you can negotiate with a mover more during those months and save some money.
What are the cheapest ways to move out of Burlington?
DIY moving will always be cheaper, especially when moving within 50 miles of Burlington. The cheapest options for moving out of the BTV are usually renting a moving truck like U-Haul or a moving container like PODS. We’ve also got a helpful guide if you’re looking for the cheapest ways to move out of state.
