The biggest levers on your East Boston quote:
How many rooms / cubic feet — the single biggest driver of your price.
Local moves are priced per volume; long-distance adds mileage and freight.
Full packing, bulky items and storage add to the base transport cost.
In Eastie, a local 2BR generally runs $2,225–$2,675 and a long-distance 2BR $4,550–$5,450 by weight and mileage. A 1BR moving locally usually lands $1,675–$2,000. Sitting next to Logan Airport, the neighborhood's harborside grid and heavy airport-area traffic can add crew hours, so truck access and timing matter as much as the size of your load.
East Boston's estimate is shaped by access and congestion. Roads around Logan and the harbor get busy, and older walk-up buildings mean stair carries rather than elevator rides. Permit parking on narrow residential streets can push the truck away from your door. Local work bills by crew hours, so airport-area traffic and long carries both add up; long-distance instead follows total weight and mileage down the road.
