Movers based in Wakefield
Ordered by the power units on each carrier's own MCS-150 filing. A local base means the crew starts its day here; it does not mean the company runs every lane you need, so ask which moves it does with its own trucks and whose USDOT number goes on the bill of lading.

What movers cost in Wakefield
Two formulas, from the published model. Under about 100 miles you pay for a crew's time; beyond it you pay for weight and distance. Neither number is a quote from any company on this page.
Local moves in Wakefield: billed by the hour
Crew × hours on site × $40–$50 per mover per hour, plus a $75 travel fee. Distance inside the metro barely matters; hours do.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $235 – $375 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $315 – $575 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $475 – $775 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $795 – $1,425 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,355 – $2,075 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,675 – $2,475 |
Long distance from Wakefield: priced by weight and miles
Full-service movers, transport only. Measured routes are driving miles; the rest are estimated and marked approximate.

Moving out of state from Wakefield?
32 of the carriers here hold interstate operating authority, which a move across a state line requires. The long-distance page lists only those, with the lanes out of Wakefield priced by home size and the federal rules that apply once the truck crosses the border.
Long-distance movers in WakefieldBefore you book a Wakefield mover
The register tells you who is licensed. These six checks tell you whether the company in front of you is the one on the register, and what the price you are quoted actually commits them to.
- 1
Open the USDOT number on the federal record
Operating authority must be active and the legal name and Wakefield address must match what you were told. No number, or a number that belongs to another company, ends the conversation.
- 2
Ask whose number will be on the bill of lading
A van-line agent moves you under the van line's authority; an independent under its own; a broker under a carrier you have not met. The company legally responsible for your goods is the one whose USDOT number is on the contract.
- 3
Get a surveyed, written estimate
Long-distance prices depend on weight, and nobody can weigh a home over the phone. A binding estimate fixes the price for the listed inventory; a non-binding one may not be exceeded by more than 110% at delivery.
- 4
Choose valuation before moving day
Released value pays 60 cents per pound per article. Full value protection is the default unless you waive it in writing. Decide now, not after a claim.
- 5
Pay little or nothing up front
Established carriers bill on delivery. A large deposit, especially by wire, cash or a payment app, is the most reliable warning sign in the business.
- 6
Read the estimate for the extras
Stairs, long carries, shuttle trucks, packing and storage-in-transit are separate lines. If they are not on the estimate, they will be on the bill.

325 listed household-goods carriers are based in Massachusetts; the state page ranks the largest, and the long-distance page keeps only those with interstate authority.
Movers in Wakefield: questions people ask
How many licensed movers are there in Wakefield, MA?
3 household-goods carriers are registered in Wakefield itself on the FMCSA register, and 40 more listed carriers work within 30 miles (Melrose, Stoneham, Reading, Saugus and nearby). All 43 hold an active registration with household goods declared and a fleet or drivers on file.
How much do movers cost in Wakefield?
Local moves are billed by the hour: $40–$50 per mover per hour plus about $75 travel in our model, which puts a two-bedroom home (2 movers, 5–7 hours) at $475 – $775 and a three-bedroom home at $795 – $1,425. A long-distance move from Wakefield to New York City, NY (about 229 miles) is $1,031 – $1,374 for a two-bedroom home, transport only.
Who is the largest mover near Wakefield?
By reported fleet, Gentle Giant Moving Company in Winchester, MA, with 88 trucks on its filing (USDOT 373544). Fleet is self-reported and means capacity, not quality; read the record behind the number before you book.
Do Wakefield movers need a USDOT number for a local move?
A move that stays inside Massachusetts is regulated by the state, and the carrier needs whatever Massachusetts requires plus a USDOT number if it runs commercial trucks. 32 of the 43 carriers here also hold interstate authority, which is what a move across a state line requires.
Is this list a recommendation?
No. It is the federal register filtered to household-goods carriers based in or near Wakefield, ordered by distance and reported fleet. Nobody pays to appear, nothing is re-ranked, and we have used none of these companies. Every row links to the carrier's own record.
About this page. Carriers are from the FMCSA Motor Carrier Census (snapshot September 24, 2026), filtered to active registrations with household goods declared as cargo, a moving-company name and a fleet or drivers on file. "Based in Wakefield" is the city on the carrier's own filing; the 30-mile radius uses ZIP-code centroids from the Census Bureau. Cost figures come from the published model, not from any carrier. Nothing is re-ranked and nobody pays for placement.
