Syracuse, NY → Kennewick, WA · Cross-country move
About 2,480 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $8,780–$13,060, delivery in 7–14 days, 195 carriers on the Syracuse side and 137 in Kennewick.
The route from Syracuse, NY to Kennewick, WA covers roughly 2,480 miles by road, a west-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 $13,060 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 43 hours (5 driving days).
On the Syracuse side there are 195 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (66 of them authorized for interstate work), and 137 around Kennewick (91 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 Kennewick.
Syracuse has a population of about 144,896 and Kennewick about 88,000. Syracuse is considerably denser (5,921 people per square mile versus 2,944), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Washington levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

About 2,480 road miles (2,101 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 43 hours (5 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 New York into Washington 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 $3,450 to $4,870 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,230 to $4,760. 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 Syracuse–Kennewick corridor.
