Memphis, TN → Port Angeles, WA · Cross-country move
About 2,275 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $7,440–$11,070, delivery in 7–14 days, 534 carriers on the Memphis side and 11 in Port Angeles.
Moving from Memphis to Port Angeles is a cross-country move of roughly 2,275 road miles, heading northwest from Tennessee 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 $7,440 to $11,070 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 Memphis side there are 534 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (397 of them authorized for interstate work), and 11 around Port Angeles (2 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 Port Angeles.
Memphis has a population of about 609,647 and Port Angeles about 20,000. The two cities have comparable density (2,132 and 1,864 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Washington is a higher-cost state than Tennessee, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 2,275 road miles (1,928 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 Tennessee 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 $3,240 to $4,570 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,050 to $4,490. 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 Memphis–Port Angeles corridor.
