McAllen, TX → Bellevue, WA · Cross-country move
About 2,319 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $7,620–$11,340, delivery in 7–14 days, 357 carriers on the McAllen side and 694 in Bellevue.
Moving from McAllen to Bellevue is a cross-country move of roughly 2,319 road miles, heading northwest from Texas to Washington.
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 $7,620 to $11,340 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 40 hours (5 driving days).
On the McAllen side there are 357 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (213 of them authorized for interstate work), and 694 around Bellevue (279 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 Bellevue.
McAllen has a population of about 150,640 and Bellevue about 154,193. Bellevue is the denser city (4,533 people per square mile versus 2,283 in McAllen), 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.

About 2,319 road miles (1,965 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 40 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 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $3,280 to $4,630 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,090 to $4,540. 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 McAllen–Bellevue corridor.
