Burbank, CA → Bothell, WA · Long-distance move
About 1,133 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,940–$8,840, delivery in 3–7 days, 896 carriers on the Burbank side and 248 in Bothell.
Moving from Burbank to Bothell is a long-distance move of roughly 1,133 road miles, heading north from California 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 $5,940 to $8,840 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 20 h 14 min.
On the Burbank side there are 896 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (350 of them authorized for interstate work), and 248 around Bothell (81 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 Bothell.
Burbank has a population of about 102,988 and Bothell about 49,000. Burbank is considerably denser (6,204 people per square mile versus 3,532), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Washington than in California, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 1,133 road miles (960 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 20 h 14 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 California 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 $1,610 to $2,280 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,030 to $2,990. 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 Burbank–Bothell corridor.
