Reverse: Coeur d'Alene → Pullman

Coeur d'Alene sits about 82 miles north of Pullman, which makes this an interstate relocation from Washington to Idaho that most movers classify as a short-haul move.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 7 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,510 and $2,240, before packing or storage.

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 56 around Coeur d'Alene (45 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 Coeur d'Alene.

Pullman has a population of about 32,000 and Coeur d'Alene about 58,000. The two cities have comparable density (2,958 and 3,390 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.

Tips for this move

A single-day move is realistic here; schedule loading in the morning so the crew arrives in Coeur d'Alene with daylight to spare.
Check Washington intrastate mover rules; many states require a state permit in addition to a USDOT number.
Group fragile items and tell the crew which boxes go in the cab or on top.
For a move under about 150 miles you can often choose between an hourly and a flat rate—ask for both.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Pullman to Coeur d'Alene?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $860 to $1,270 for a studio, $970 to $1,440 for a one-bedroom, $1,510 to $2,240 for a two-bedroom, $2,260 to $3,370 for a three-bedroom and $3,290 to $4,900 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Coeur d'Alene from Pullman?

About 82 road miles (69 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 7 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Pullman to Coeur d'Alene?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $230 to $330 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,090 to $1,610. 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 Pullman–Coeur d'Alene corridor.
