Reverse: Seattle → Irving

The route from Irving, TX to Seattle, WA covers roughly 1,971 miles by road, a northwest-bound trip that falls into the cross-country 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 $7,040 to $10,470 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 34 hours (4 driving days).

On the Irving side there are 2,220 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (881 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,037 around Seattle (440 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 Seattle.

Irving has a population of about 257,076 and Seattle about 784,777. Seattle is the denser city (8,795 people per square mile versus 3,831 in Irving), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Washington is a higher-cost state than Texas, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Irving to Seattle?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,810 to $4,190 for a studio, $4,220 to $6,280 for a one-bedroom, $7,040 to $10,470 for a two-bedroom, $11,260 to $16,750 for a three-bedroom and $15,480 to $23,030 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Seattle from Irving?

About 1,971 road miles (1,670 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 34 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Texas 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 Irving to Seattle?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,780 to $3,920 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,780 to $4,090. 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 Irving–Seattle corridor.
