Boston to Connecticut is one of our most-run corridors — Hartford, New Haven, Stamford, Greenwich, and the shoreline towns are all a straightforward 90 minutes to two and a half hours down I-84 or I-95. Because it's a shorter interstate hop, it's almost always a single-day, same-crew move, and we price it hourly — never by weight: a typical 1-bedroom runs roughly $900–$1,500 and a 2-bedroom $1,400–$2,400 door to door, drive time quoted up front.
How a Boston–Connecticut Move Runs
Your crew loads in Greater Boston in the morning, drives the corridor, and unloads the same afternoon — no overnight hold, no freight transfer, no second crew. Connecticut splits into two natural routes: I-84 for Hartford and the central/western interior, I-95 for the Gold Coast (Stamford, Greenwich, Norwalk) and the shoreline. Either way it's one truck and one team door to door. We also run the route in reverse on the same terms — see Boston to Connecticut movers.
Transparent Hourly Pricing
$149/hr for a 2-mover crew, $179/hr for 3, $219/hr for 4 — 3-hour minimum, 15-minute increments, and the drive time included in the written quote. We never estimate by the pound or cubic foot (the two methods that leave room for surprise charges at delivery), and there are no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or broker markups. Licensed for interstate work under USDOT #1718049 and MC #630047, fully insured, full-time W-2 crews.
What Affects Your Cost
- How packed you are — fully boxed before the crew arrives is the biggest saver.
- Destination — the Gold Coast adds drive time vs. Hartford; both are still same-day.
- Home size and crew — a 3-mover crew often beats 2 on total cost by compressing the day.
- Access — long driveways, condos with elevator rules, or shoreline homes with parking limits add time (never a surcharge).
Why a Boston-Based Crew
If either end of your move touches Greater Boston, a Boston-based crew means the urban end is handled by people who load city apartments every day, and the Connecticut end is a clean highway run — one accountable company instead of a broker handing your job to the lowest bidder.
