Cedar Rapids, IA → Hood River, OR · Cross-country move
About 1,771 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $6,320–$9,410, delivery in 5–10 days, 96 carriers on the Cedar Rapids side and 13 in Hood River.
Hood River sits about 1,771 miles west of Cedar Rapids, which makes this an interstate relocation from Iowa to Oregon 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 $6,320 to $9,410 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 31 hours (4 driving days).
On the Cedar Rapids side there are 96 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (57 of them authorized for interstate work), and 13 around Hood River (10 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 Hood River.
Cedar Rapids has a population of about 137,935 and Hood River about 8,000. Hood River is the denser city (3,188 people per square mile versus 1,910 in Cedar Rapids), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Oregon is a higher-cost state than Iowa, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 1,771 road miles (1,501 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 31 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 Iowa into Oregon 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 $2,420 to $3,420 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,600 to $3,820. 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 Cedar Rapids–Hood River corridor.
