Norfolk, VA → Walla Walla, WA · Cross-country move
About 2,643 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $8,430–$12,550, delivery in 7–14 days, 336 carriers on the Norfolk side and 10 in Walla Walla.
Moving from Norfolk to Walla Walla is a cross-country move of roughly 2,643 road miles, heading northwest from Virginia 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 $8,430 to $12,550 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 46 hours (6 driving days).
On the Norfolk side there are 336 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (197 of them authorized for interstate work), and 10 around Walla Walla (4 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 Walla Walla.
Norfolk has a population of about 231,013 and Walla Walla about 34,000. Norfolk is considerably denser (4,465 people per square mile versus 2,426), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Washington is a higher-cost state than Virginia, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 2,643 road miles (2,239 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 46 hours (6 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 Virginia 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 $3,620 to $5,100 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,380 to $4,970. 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 Norfolk–Walla Walla corridor.
