Boston, MA → Redmond, WA · Cross-country move
About 2,920 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $9,520–$14,170, delivery in 7–14 days, 918 carriers on the Boston side and 359 in Redmond.
Moving from Boston to Redmond is a cross-country move of roughly 2,920 road miles, heading northwest from Massachusetts to Washington.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $9,520 to $14,170 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 7 to 14 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 51 hours (6 driving days).
On the Boston side there are 918 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (554 of them authorized for interstate work), and 359 around Redmond (118 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 Redmond.
Boston has a population of about 672,973 and Redmond about 76,000. Boston is considerably denser (13,989 people per square mile versus 4,422), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 2,920 road miles (2,475 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 51 hours (6 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 7 to 14 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Massachusetts 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 $4,050 to $5,720 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,630 to $5,330. 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 Boston–Redmond corridor.
