Pullman, WA → Boise, ID · Regional long-distance move
About 261 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,710–$4,030, delivery in 1–3 days, 17 carriers on the Pullman side and 168 in Boise.
Moving from Pullman to Boise is a regional long-distance move of roughly 261 road miles, heading south from Washington to Idaho.
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 $2,710 to $4,030 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 5 h 12 min.
On the Pullman side there are 17 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (13 of them authorized for interstate work), and 168 around Boise (127 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 Boise.
Pullman has a population of about 32,000 and Boise about 238,429. The two cities have comparable density (2,958 and 2,806 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Idaho than in Washington, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that Idaho does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 261 road miles (221 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 5 h 12 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Idaho 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 $420 to $590 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,250 to $1,840. 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 Pullman–Boise corridor.
