Norwalk, CT → Pullman, WA · Cross-country move
About 2,576 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $8,580–$12,770, delivery in 7–14 days, 395 carriers on the Norwalk side and 17 in Pullman.
Pullman sits about 2,576 miles northwest of Norwalk, which makes this an interstate relocation from Connecticut to Washington that most movers classify as a cross-country move.
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 $8,580 to $12,770 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 45 hours (6 driving days).
On the Norwalk side there are 395 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (163 of them authorized for interstate work), and 17 around Pullman (13 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 Pullman.
Norwalk has a population of about 92,000 and Pullman about 32,000. Norwalk is considerably denser (3,984 people per square mile versus 2,958), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 2,576 road miles (2,183 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 45 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 Connecticut 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 $3,550 to $5,010 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,320 to $4,880. 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 Norwalk–Pullman corridor.
