Redmond, WA → Hartford, CT · Cross-country move
About 2,854 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $9,080–$13,510, delivery in 7–14 days, 359 carriers on the Redmond side and 350 in Hartford.
Moving from Redmond to Hartford is a cross-country move of roughly 2,854 road miles, heading east from Washington to Connecticut.
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 $9,080 to $13,510 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 7 to 14 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 49 hours (6 driving days).
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 350 around Hartford (246 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 Hartford.
Redmond has a population of about 76,000 and Hartford about 121,981. Hartford is the denser city (6,957 people per square mile versus 4,422 in Redmond), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Connecticut does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 2,854 road miles (2,419 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 49 hours (6 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 7 to 14 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 Connecticut 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 $3,980 to $5,620 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,570 to $5,250. 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–Hartford corridor.
