Hayward, CA → Redmond, WA · Long-distance move
About 819 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,010–$7,450, delivery in 2–5 days, 754 carriers on the Hayward side and 359 in Redmond.
The route from Hayward, CA to Redmond, WA covers roughly 819 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 $5,010 to $7,450 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 14 h 49 min.
On the Hayward side there are 754 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (242 of them authorized for interstate work), and 359 around Redmond (118 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 Redmond.
Hayward has a population of about 157,113 and Redmond about 76,000. The two cities have comparable density (3,558 and 4,422 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. 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.

Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 $1,140 to $1,610 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,750 to $2,570. 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 Hayward–Redmond corridor.
