The route from Pasadena, CA to Renton, WA covers roughly 1,114 miles by road, a north-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $5,890 to $8,760 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 19 h 54 min.

On the Pasadena side there are 822 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (337 of them authorized for interstate work), and 614 around Renton (288 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 Renton.

Pasadena has a population of about 135,804 and Renton about 104,975. Pasadena is considerably denser (6,030 people per square mile versus 4,544), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Washington than in California, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Pasadena to Renton?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,350 to $3,500 for a studio, $3,530 to $5,250 for a one-bedroom, $5,890 to $8,760 for a two-bedroom, $9,420 to $14,010 for a three-bedroom and $12,950 to $19,270 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Renton from Pasadena?

About 1,114 road miles (944 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 19 h 54 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 California 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Pasadena to Renton?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,590 to $2,250 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,010 to $2,960. 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 Pasadena–Renton corridor.
