Burbank, CA → Bridgeport, CT · Cross-country move
About 2,933 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $9,630–$14,320, delivery in 7–14 days, 896 carriers on the Burbank side and 447 in Bridgeport.
Bridgeport sits about 2,933 miles northeast of Burbank, which makes this an interstate relocation from California to Connecticut that most movers classify as a cross-country move.
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 $9,630 to $14,320 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 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 447 around Bridgeport (230 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 Bridgeport.
Burbank has a population of about 102,988 and Bridgeport about 152,273. Bridgeport is the denser city (9,233 people per square mile versus 6,204 in Burbank), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Labor and living costs run lower in Connecticut than in California, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 2,933 road miles (2,486 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 California into Connecticut 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 $4,060 to $5,740 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,640 to $5,350. 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–Bridgeport corridor.
