Irvine, CA → Binghamton, NY · Cross-country move
About 2,750 road miles heading northeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $9,680–$14,400, delivery in 7–14 days, 625 carriers on the Irvine side and 77 in Binghamton.
Binghamton sits about 2,750 miles northeast of Irvine, which makes this an interstate relocation from California to New York 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 $9,680 to $14,400 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 48 hours (6 driving days).
On the Irvine side there are 625 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (239 of them authorized for interstate work), and 77 around Binghamton (33 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 Binghamton.
Irvine has a population of about 318,764 and Binghamton about 47,000. The two cities have comparable density (4,690 and 4,578 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 2,750 road miles (2,331 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 48 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 New York 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 $3,880 to $5,470 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,470 to $5,110. 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 Irvine–Binghamton corridor.
