Astoria, OR → Vancouver, WA · Short-haul move
About 82 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,560–$2,330, delivery in 1–2 days, 11 carriers on the Astoria side and 606 in Vancouver.
Moving from Astoria to Vancouver is a short-haul move of roughly 82 road miles, heading southeast from Oregon to Washington.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 7 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,560 and $2,330, before packing or storage.
On the Astoria side there are 11 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (8 of them authorized for interstate work), and 606 around Vancouver (453 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Vancouver.
Astoria has a population of about 10,000 and Vancouver about 199,698. Vancouver is the denser city (3,920 people per square mile versus 1,667 in Astoria), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 82 road miles (70 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 7 min.
For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.
Yes. Crossing from Oregon into Washington makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $230 to $330 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,090 to $1,610. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Astoria–Vancouver corridor.
