Kent, WA → Corpus Christi, TX · Cross-country move
About 2,257 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $7,520–$11,180, delivery in 7–14 days, 646 carriers on the Kent side and 98 in Corpus Christi.
Moving from Kent to Corpus Christi is a cross-country move of roughly 2,257 road miles, heading southeast from Washington to Texas.
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 $7,520 to $11,180 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 39 hours (5 driving days).
On the Kent side there are 646 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (317 of them authorized for interstate work), and 98 around Corpus Christi (17 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 Corpus Christi.
Kent has a population of about 134,871 and Corpus Christi about 317,247. Kent is considerably denser (4,041 people per square mile versus 1,960), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Texas than in Washington, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 2,257 road miles (1,913 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 39 hours (5 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 Washington into Texas 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 $3,220 to $4,540 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,030 to $4,460. 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 Kent–Corpus Christi corridor.
