There's no single price to move to Juneau — a studio coming from across the state costs a fraction of a 4-bedroom shipped cross-country. Use the tool above for your figure and the tables below for context.
| Home size | Local move | Long-distance move |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | $1,800 – $2,150 | $5,600 – $6,725 |
| 1 bedroom | $2,475 – $2,975 | $7,975 – $9,550 |
| 2 bedroom | $3,425 – $4,100 | $11,250 – $13,500 |
| 3 bedroom | $4,775 – $5,725 | $16,025 – $19,225 |
| 4 bedroom | $6,925 – $8,325 | $23,450 – $28,125 |
Distances are approximate driving miles; the 2-bedroom estimate is a typical long-distance range.

The biggest levers on your Juneau 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.
Juneau is Alaska's most barge-dependent move. A local 2-bedroom relocation runs about $3,425–$4,100, while bringing that home from the Lower 48 reaches roughly $11,250–$13,500. Bigger loads scale sharply: a 4-bedroom is around $6,925–$8,325 in the capital versus $23,450–$28,125 arriving from the mainland, since every crate crosses water before it ever touches a Juneau street.
With no road connection to the rest of Alaska, everything moving to Juneau rides the Alaska Marine Highway ferry or a barge into the Southeast. That single fact drives price more than anything else: carriers work around sailing schedules, limited local truck fleets, and Southeast's wet, mild-but-stormy weather. Volume, ferry space, and handling at each transfer point all feed the quote.
