This information is based on recent moves from Boston, MA to Hartford, CT. Exact pricing depends on inventory, access (stairs/elevators/long carry), date/season, and any specialty items, such as pianos or safes.
Move & Care uses a flat rate for interstate moves. The price on your written quote is the price you pay—no fuel add-ons, no weekend surcharges, no surprises. Your flat rate includes professional movers, the truck, all tolls, gasoline, basic valuation coverage, our standard equipment kit, and a Certificate of Insurance (COI) for Boston buildings and Hartford destinations as needed.
How do we build your rate? First we factor the mileage (≈100–102 mi via Mass Pike → I-84). Then we inventory your items, note any special pieces (e.g., upright piano from $160; baby grand from $240; single items >200 lbs from $60), and add any extras like full or partial packing or overnight hold/storage. The ranges above cover most 1–4 bedroom moves on this corridor; the fastest way to determine your cost is to request a free moving estimate. Your coordinator will walk options with you and send a binding quote in writing.
A live or FaceTime visual survey is available—and 100% free.
Payment is easy: cash earns a 5% discount; cards include a 3.5% processing fee. Your deposit locks your date and flat rate—so your budget stays fixed.
Under federal rules for interstate moves, you choose between two valuation options. Released Value costs $0 extra and provides minimal protection—$0.60 per pound per article. Full Value Protection makes the mover responsible for the replacement value of lost or damaged items (deductible options vary). Review details in FMCSA’s Liability & Protection page and the official “Your Rights & Responsibilities When You Move” booklet.
Most Boston to Hartford moves are completed the same day. A typical schedule starts with a morning arrival in Greater Boston for pad-wrap and loading. We plan departure to avoid peak Boston traffic, then run Mass Pike (I-90) to I-84 into Hartford. For larger inventories or buildings with narrow loading windows, delivery may occur the same evening or the next morning. Your coordinator provides real-time updates so you always know where things stand.
Route basics: Boston to Hartford is roughly 100–102 miles, about 1 hr 40 min to 1 hr 50 min of drive time under typical conditions (I-90 → I-84). That short distance makes same-day delivery realistic for most homes and apartments.
Route facts source: Travelmath distance Boston→Hartford (≈102 miles) and Travelmath typical driving time (≈1 hr 39 min).
Route & service areas: Boston, MA → Hartford, CT along I-90 (Mass Pike) and I-84, serving origins like Back Bay, South End, Allston/Brighton, Cambridge and Somerville, plus destinations in Downtown Hartford, Asylum Hill, Frog Hollow, and nearby West Hartford and East Hartford. Worcester is a common en-route waypoint.
Parking & access: In Boston, a moving-day curbside reservation isn’t legally required, but it’s strongly recommended on busy or narrow streets. A one-day permit (7 a.m.–5 p.m.) lets you reserve space near your entrance—see the City’s guide and apply online. In Hartford, there’s no specific “moving permit,” but the Hartford Parking Authority offers on-street Parking Reservations; payment is due at least three days in advance. We’ll advise on both, provide truck specs, post signage where needed, and furnish COIs to property managers on request.
Season & weather: New England winters can affect timing. We monitor forecasts and adjust crew call times or routing to keep your delivery on schedule. If stairs, long carries, or tight elevators are involved, we’ll plan crew size and equipment accordingly.
Beyond transport, we handle the details: we disassemble and reassemble beds, protect furniture with moving blankets (included), place items where you want them, and remove packing debris before we roll—so your first evening in Hartford feels like home.
Your dedicated coordinator conducts a quick video survey, builds a precise inventory, and helps arrange a Boston curb permit if needed. If you’ve purchased them from us, we can deliver boxes and packing supplies in advance. We’ll also help you confirm Hartford loading details and building COI requirements.
A uniformed crew pads and shrink-wraps furniture, protects doors and railings, and loads efficiently. Our driver times departure to clear peak traffic and keeps you posted. If weather arises, we adjust routing in real time to preserve your delivery window.
On arrival in Hartford, we coordinate with your building, present the COI, and begin placement. We reassemble beds and larger items, position rugs and furniture to plan, and remove all packing debris. A joint walkthrough verifies everything is in place before we close out.
