Redmond, WA → Carson City, NV · Long-distance move
About 709 road miles heading south. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,290–$6,380, delivery in 2–5 days, 359 carriers on the Redmond side and 32 in Carson City.
Carson City sits about 709 miles south of Redmond, which makes this an interstate relocation from Washington to Nevada that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $4,290 to $6,380 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 12 h 55 min.
On the Redmond side there are 359 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (118 of them authorized for interstate work), and 32 around Carson City (23 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 Carson City.
Redmond has a population of about 76,000 and Carson City about 59,000. Redmond is considerably denser (4,422 people per square mile versus 406), 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 Nevada than in Washington, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 709 road miles (601 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 12 h 55 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 Nevada 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 $1,030 to $1,450 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,650 to $2,430. 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 Redmond–Carson City corridor.
