Redmond, WA → Suffolk, VA · Cross-country move
About 2,844 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $8,780–$13,070, delivery in 7–14 days, 359 carriers on the Redmond side and 101 in Suffolk.
The route from Redmond, WA to Suffolk, VA covers roughly 2,844 miles by road, a east-bound trip that falls into the cross-country 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 $8,780 to $13,070 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 101 around Suffolk (62 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 Suffolk.
Redmond has a population of about 76,000 and Suffolk about 104,699. Redmond is considerably denser (4,422 people per square mile versus 236), 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 Virginia than in Washington, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that Virginia does collect a state income tax, unlike Washington, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 2,844 road miles (2,410 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 Virginia 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 $3,970 to $5,610 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,560 to $5,230. 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–Suffolk corridor.
