Syracuse, NY → Pullman, WA · Cross-country move
About 2,362 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $8,560–$12,740, delivery in 7–14 days, 195 carriers on the Syracuse side and 17 in Pullman.
Pullman sits about 2,362 miles west of Syracuse, which makes this an interstate relocation from New York to Washington that most movers classify as a cross-country 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 $8,560 to $12,740 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 41 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 17 around Pullman (13 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 Pullman.
Syracuse has a population of about 144,896 and Pullman about 32,000. Syracuse is considerably denser (5,921 people per square mile versus 2,958), 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 2,362 road miles (2,001 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 41 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 $3,330 to $4,700 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,130 to $4,600. 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–Pullman corridor.
