Reverse: Tacoma → Goodyear

Moving from Goodyear to Tacoma is a long-distance move of roughly 1,300 road miles, heading northwest from Arizona 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 $5,820 to $8,660 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 23 h 7 min.

On the Goodyear side there are 201 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (97 of them authorized for interstate work), and 823 around Tacoma (399 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 Tacoma.

Goodyear has a population of about 125,359 and Tacoma about 229,816. Tacoma is the denser city (4,413 people per square mile versus 498 in Goodyear), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Washington is a higher-cost state than Arizona, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. 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 Goodyear to Tacoma?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,330 to $3,470 for a studio, $3,490 to $5,200 for a one-bedroom, $5,820 to $8,660 for a two-bedroom, $9,320 to $13,860 for a three-bedroom and $12,810 to $19,060 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Tacoma from Goodyear?

About 1,300 road miles (1,102 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 23 h 7 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 Arizona 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 Goodyear to Tacoma?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,790 to $2,520 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,180 to $3,210. 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 Goodyear–Tacoma corridor.
