Reverse: Kent → Bothell

Kent sits about 31 miles south of Bothell, so this is an in-state move that most movers classify as a local move.

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 58 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,330 and $1,980, before packing or storage.

On the Bothell side there are 248 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (81 of them authorized for interstate work), and 646 around Kent (317 interstate). For an in-state 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 Kent.

Bothell has a population of about 49,000 and Kent about 134,871. The two cities have comparable density (3,532 and 4,041 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Bothell to Kent?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $710 to $1,050 for a studio, $830 to $1,230 for a one-bedroom, $1,330 to $1,980 for a two-bedroom, $2,070 to $3,080 for a three-bedroom and $3,100 to $4,610 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Kent from Bothell?

About 31 road miles (27 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 58 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Bothell and Kent are in Washington, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Bothell to Kent?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $180 to $260 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,050 to $1,540. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Bothell–Kent corridor.
