If you are planning a 2 bedroom apartment or condo move, one of the first questions you probably have is simple: How much is this going to cost?
For most 2 bedroom apartment or condo moves, we typically expect the move to take approximately 5 to 7 hours with 2 movers, depending on the amount of furniture, boxes, walking distance, elevators, stairs, parking access, and overall preparation. At Two Marines Moving, we believe clients deserve clear expectations before move day. Moving is already stressful enough. Pricing should not feel mysterious.

Why a 2 Bedroom Move Usually Takes 5 to 7 Hours
A 2 bedroom apartment or condo move typically involves more furniture, more boxes, and more staging than a studio or 1 bedroom move. There may be two bedroom sets, living room furniture, dining furniture, office items, patio furniture, storage area contents, or a higher volume of packed boxes. The time required depends heavily on access and preparation.
When We Recommend a Third Mover
While most 2 bedroom apartment and condo moves can be completed efficiently with 2 movers, we recommend a third mover approximately 25% of the time based on the overall scope of work. A third mover is often advisable when the move includes:
- •A large amount of furniture
- •An above-average number of boxes
- •Multiple flights of stairs
- •Long walking distances
- •Elevator delays or access restrictions
- •Heavy items such as safes, treadmills, large sectionals, or oversized furniture
- •Storage unit pickups or deliveries
- •Tight move-day timelines
- •Multiple pickup or delivery locations
What Can Make the Move Take Less Time?
- ✅Boxes are fully packed before the crew arrives
- ✅Loose items are consolidated
- ✅Furniture is ready to be moved
- ✅Parking is close and available
- ✅Elevators are reserved when needed
- ✅Hallways and access points are clear
- ✅The client has already separated what is moving and what is staying
- ✅Fragile items are packed properly beforehand
