What to know about moving in Springfield

There are a few things that can affect your moving cost, including distance, time of year, and number of movers needed. Based on our data, you can estimate to spend $1,000 for local moves. Long-distance moves can be closer to $10,000, but that price can be hugely impacted by distance and amount of belongings. If you want to save a little money, moving truck rentals are usually cheaper than a full-service moving company, but you’ll be doing the heavy lifting.

According to data from Niche, Springfield residents report that the area is good for families, has a good commute, and a low cost of living.

However, there are some issues around crime and safety. The data suggests that the assault, burglary, and theft rates are higher than the national average.

Springfield homes are valued at $137,322 according to Zillow estimates. Median rent in the area is about $852 per month—around $200 lower than the national average. The Historic West Side and Near Side areas are the more expensive neighborhoods, with Bunn Park, Harvard Park, and Vinegar Hill on the lower side.

First National Van Lines is our pick to get you from the Green Mountain State to Springfield. They’re a juggernaut in the long-distance moving industry and can handle a big move. If you want some other options, check out more of our top movers or get a quote from PODS.
