Port Angeles, WA → San Marcos, TX · Cross-country move
About 2,178 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $7,380–$10,990, delivery in 5–10 days, 11 carriers on the Port Angeles side and 94 in San Marcos.
Moving from Port Angeles to San Marcos is a cross-country move of roughly 2,178 road miles, heading southeast from Washington to Texas.
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 $7,380 to $10,990 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 38 hours (5 driving days).
On the Port Angeles side there are 11 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (2 of them authorized for interstate work), and 94 around San Marcos (22 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 San Marcos.
Port Angeles has a population of about 20,000 and San Marcos about 72,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,864 and 1,738 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Texas than in Washington, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 2,178 road miles (1,846 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 38 hours (5 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 Washington into Texas 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 $2,990 to $4,220 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,960 to $4,360. 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 Port Angeles–San Marcos corridor.
