Moving from Seattle to Tyler is a cross-country move of roughly 2,083 road miles, heading southeast from Washington to Texas.

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 $7,220 to $10,750 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 36 hours (5 driving days).

On the Seattle side there are 1,037 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (440 of them authorized for interstate work), and 153 around Tyler (66 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 Tyler.

Seattle has a population of about 784,777 and Tyler about 113,723. Seattle is considerably denser (8,795 people per square mile versus 1,843), 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 Texas than in Washington, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Seattle to Tyler?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,890 to $4,300 for a studio, $4,330 to $6,450 for a one-bedroom, $7,220 to $10,750 for a two-bedroom, $11,560 to $17,200 for a three-bedroom and $15,890 to $23,650 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Tyler from Seattle?

About 2,083 road miles (1,765 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 36 hours (5 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Washington into Texas 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 Seattle to Tyler?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,890 to $4,080 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,880 to $4,230. 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.

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 Seattle–Tyler corridor.
