How much does it cost to move to Maine?

The calculation of moving cost to Maine is a little complicated as it involves multiple factors, such as your current location, the destination you are moving to, the volume of household belongings you move, the season you move, and the type of moving service.

As Maine is spread over 35,385 square miles, where in Maine are you moving to is a major factor. Also, you need to remember that moving to Maine from Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, or Massachusetts will be cheaper than moving from Idaho, Nevada, Wyoming, or Montana.

Here’s an approximate moving cost from different states to Maine

From State Studio/1 bedroom 2-3 bedroom 4+ bedroom
Illinois $1,210-$1,820 $1,800-$2,610 $2,500-$3,530
Washington $2,450-$3,410 $3,160-$4,350 $3,990-$5,420

When you prepare a moving estimate to Maine, consider the following factors:

  • Size of the move:

    How much are you taking along with the new home? A moving company in Maine will consider the volume of household items you move while preparing the moving quote. The larger volume your stuff is, the costlier the moving quote will be.

  • Distance between your origin and destination:

    The distance you move to relocate the home is vital in determining the final moving cost.

  • Packing services:

    You hire a moving company and the services include the packing of your belongings. You need to remember that the moving company will put a price tag on every packing material used. This would be added up to the final moving cost.

  • Moving add-ons:

    Every service you opt for from a professional moving company has got a price. This can be disassembling and reassembling furniture, moving specialty items, or moving supplies provided by movers such as a stretch wrap, felt pads, and mattress bags. And your final moving cost will include the price for every additional service you received.

  • Storage:

    Moving to Maine, maybe the new home is smaller in size and you may require additional space to store your items. Hire a storage unit in Maine and maybe the moving company will offer you one for a cost. However, the rental will be added to the final moving cost.

  • Moving date:

    People prefer moving to the home in summer as the days are sunny and long. And this makes summer an expensive season to relocate the home. You have fewer chances of obtaining a good moving deal in the summer. Instead, while moving in winter, during the off-season, you may get lucrative discounts. Plan the relocation of your house in winter if cutting down the moving cost is your goal.

  • Insurance:

    You can insure additionally the household items that are being moved. However, you need to remember that the premium would be added to the total moving cost.

A moving company will call relocation within the state or within a 100-mile radius as a local move. And a mover in Maine will calculate the cost for moving differently. For local moving, the cost is calculated on an hourly basis, based on the number of laborers work plus the hours taken to complete the task.

While you relocate a home locally in Maine, you would require spending between $50 and $75 per mover per hour to move an average home. When you require a minimum of 2 laborers and 2 hours in addition to the 1 hour drive time to relocate the home, you would need to pay for at least 3 hours for 2 movers. And you would need to shell out a minimum between $250 and $300 unless your move needs more hours or more people.

To get a clearer picture of moving cost within Maine, consider the following:

No. of bedrooms No. of movers and hours Approximate cost
1 bedroom 2 movers and 3 hours $250-$500
2 bedroom 3 movers and 5 hours $300-$750
3 bedroom 4 movers and 7 hours $500-$1200
4 bedroom 5 movers and 9 hours $1,200-$4,000
However, you need to remember that these are just approximate costs and the real costs may vary based on different factors.

Moving within Maine or local moving is much different from long-distance or cross-country moving, not just in cost calculation but even in the modes of transport. To move long-distance from Maine, hiring a full-service moving company or a partial moving service company is the best bet for the distance and other challenges involved. However, while relocating within the state, you don’t need professional assistance. Instead, there are many ways that are cheap and budget-friendly.

Different ways to move somewhere inside Maine

  • Hire a full-service or partial moving service company

    When you hire a full-service moving company in Maine, it will take up every task related to the moving, including the packing of your belongings, loading the truck, unloading it, and unpacking the belongings at the new home. This relieves you from the anguish or moving and also saves your time.

    However, for certain people, a full-service moving company is not an affordable option and they can instead hire a partial moving service company. Apart from cheaper, it will give your relocation a professional touch.

  • Hire a truck and load it with your stuff

    When you don’t feel the need to hire a professional moving company, you can take a truck on rental and drive it to the new home filling it with your household belongings. This way of moving the home is really affordable as the only cost you need to spend here is the truck rental, which may come between $30 and $47 per day plus the fuel cost.

  • Hire a portable container

    To move within Maine, you can hire a portable container that will be delivered to your doorstep a day before the moving date. You can fill it with your belongings at your convenience and the moving company will deliver the container to your new address in a few days. Usually, a portable container may cost you about $400 to $500 to move your belongings within 50 miles.

  • Rent a tow behind cargo or utility trailer

    When you have just a limited volume of household belongings, hire a utility trailer and fill the stuff into it. Tow it behind your vehicle and drive to the new home. Always remember that your vehicle must have a trailer hitch and the stuff should also be limited.

  • Move the stuff in your car

    You can even squeeze the belongings in your car with open seats, floors, and a trunk. When the belongings are more than what can fit into a car, take the help of a friend and his car.

You’ve got many options to move locally in Maine but moving outside the state is completely different and a little complicated.

Your moving options are based on how far you’re moving and how many household items you have.

While to move within Maine, you can opt for the DIY method, this is not a good option to move cross-country as the truck rental to drive through multiple states is highly expensive. Also, you would need to spend a big amount on fuel plus the hassles on road are extra.

This leaves you just two options:

Full Service Moving:

When you hire a full-service moving company in Maine, it will take up the responsibility to pack the belongings, load the truck, and unload it at the new home. The moving process will become easier and hassle-free. Also, you will save a lot of time when a professional company will take up the responsibility to relocate the home

Partial Moving Services:

Though a full-service moving company is a safe bet to move the home long distance, it is costlier and may not fit into your budget. In that case, hire a partial moving service company that will help you load the truck and unload it at the new home. When required, it will also provide packing services for an additional cost.

You hire a moving company in Maine with the intention of transiting the household belongings, which include both expensive items and special items. To ensure that your household belongings are in safe hands, verify the background of the mover. It should also be licensed to move the home interstate.

Before you sign an agreement with a mover, confirm its profile on the Better Business Bureau (BBB), whether it is accredited by the BBB. A few bad apples switch names frequently to evade the authorities and it becomes important to ensure that the mover you hire has not changed names in the past.

Fortunately, you are hiring a moving company through MoverJunction as we’ve only licensed and registered moving companies.

  • License and registration details
  • BBB-license details

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)

As the moving is a long process, you need to start early, at least 6 weeks in advance. Because after you approaching moving companies, each mover will send a representative to take a visual survey of your household belongings. Post the survey, you need to negotiate with different movers and finalize the deal, which will take at least 3 weeks. The earlier you begin the process, the better your chance for a decent and affordable quote is.

When you approach a moving company in Maine, you need to consider:

  • Reputation
  • Insurance
  • The company’s policy
  • Experience
  • Cost of service
  • Cancellation policy
  • Referrals

Usually, people prefer moving in summer when the days are longer and sunny. In summers, roads are free from snow and it is easier to transport household items. However, the high demand also makes moving expensive in summer. You have low chances of obtaining discounts and deals in summer. Instead, very few people prefer moving in winter and as a result, movers in Maine offer good discounts. If moving affordably is your goal, plan your move in winter when you can negotiate better.

Similarly, weekdays are cheaper and weekends are costlier to move. Also, moving on public holidays is expensive.

As per federal law, it is not permitted to move combustible or flammable materials. A mover in Maine would not transport combustible materials including but not limited to, cleaning solvents, corrosives, fireworks or flares, gasoline, kerosene, motor fuel, lamp oil, oil-based paints, thinners, and varnishes, lighter fluid, fire extinguishers, nail polish remover, bleach, sterno, aerosol cans, propane containers and cylinders, matches, and old batteries.

Also, every moving company will have a policy related to the items that are moved. You can check with the company during the initial discussion.

Tipping is not mandatory but as a good gesture to workers for a satisfying service, you can tip them. When you hire a mover, it is expected to safely deliver your household stuff at the new home, and like any service provider; the laborers expect recognition for a job well done. Offer beverages (water, sports drink, soda) and food (breakfast rolls, sandwiches, pizza, cookies), which will be a good gesture.
