The route from Kent, WA to Springfield, MA covers roughly 2,858 miles by road, a east-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 $9,410 to $14,000 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 49 hours (6 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 213 around Springfield (155 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 Springfield.

Kent has a population of about 134,871 and Springfield about 154,702. The two cities have comparable density (4,041 and 4,888 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Massachusetts does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Kent to Springfield?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $3,760 to $5,600 for a studio, $5,640 to $8,400 for a one-bedroom, $9,410 to $14,000 for a two-bedroom, $15,050 to $22,400 for a three-bedroom and $20,700 to $30,790 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Springfield from Kent?

About 2,858 road miles (2,422 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 49 hours (6 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 Washington into Massachusetts 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 Kent to Springfield?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,990 to $5,630 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,570 to $5,250. 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 Kent–Springfield corridor.
