Moving from Olympia to Edison is a cross-country move of roughly 2,860 road miles, heading east from Washington to New Jersey.

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 $9,210 to $13,700 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 50 hours (6 driving days).

On the Olympia side there are 101 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (46 of them authorized for interstate work), and 665 around Edison (476 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 Edison.

Olympia has a population of about 57,000 and Edison about 109,077. The two cities have comparable density (3,052 and 3,574 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that New Jersey 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 Olympia to Edison?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $3,680 to $5,480 for a studio, $5,530 to $8,220 for a one-bedroom, $9,210 to $13,700 for a two-bedroom, $14,740 to $21,930 for a three-bedroom and $20,260 to $30,150 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Edison from Olympia?

About 2,860 road miles (2,424 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 50 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 New Jersey 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 Olympia to Edison?

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 Olympia–Edison corridor.
