Reverse: Port Angeles → Downey

The route from Downey, CA to Port Angeles, WA covers roughly 1,201 miles by road, a north-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $6,150 to $9,140 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 21 h 24 min.

On the Downey side there are 1,488 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (629 of them authorized for interstate work), and 11 around Port Angeles (2 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 Port Angeles.

Downey has a population of about 108,468 and Port Angeles about 20,000. Downey is considerably denser (9,222 people per square mile versus 1,864), 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.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Downey to Port Angeles?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,460 to $3,660 for a studio, $3,690 to $5,490 for a one-bedroom, $6,150 to $9,140 for a two-bedroom, $9,830 to $14,630 for a three-bedroom and $13,520 to $20,120 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Port Angeles from Downey?

About 1,201 road miles (1,018 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 21 h 24 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Downey to Port Angeles?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,680 to $2,380 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,090 to $3,080. 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 Downey–Port Angeles corridor.
