The route from Pullman, WA to Elk Grove, CA covers roughly 724 miles by road, a south-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 $4,730 to $7,030 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 13 h 11 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 571 around Elk Grove (310 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 Elk Grove.
Pullman has a population of about 32,000 and Elk Grove about 185,007. Elk Grove is the denser city (4,193 people per square mile versus 2,958 in Pullman), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. California is a higher-cost state than Washington, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Note that California does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
