Reverse: Wasilla → Ithaca

Wasilla sits about 3,739 miles northwest of Ithaca, which makes this an interstate relocation from New York to Alaska 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 $11,370 to $16,920 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 65 hours (8 driving days).

On the Ithaca side there are 98 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (36 of them authorized for interstate work), and 49 around Wasilla (6 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 Wasilla.

Ithaca has a population of about 32,000 and Wasilla about 11,000. Ithaca is considerably denser (5,958 people per square mile versus 730), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Alaska 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 Ithaca to Wasilla?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $4,550 to $6,770 for a studio, $6,820 to $10,150 for a one-bedroom, $11,370 to $16,920 for a two-bedroom, $18,190 to $27,070 for a three-bedroom and $25,020 to $37,220 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Wasilla from Ithaca?

About 3,739 road miles (3,168 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 65 hours (8 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from New York into Alaska 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 Ithaca to Wasilla?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $5,190 to $7,330 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $4,360 to $6,410. 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 Ithaca–Wasilla corridor.
