Moving from Yakima to Walla Walla is a short-haul move of roughly 132 road miles, heading east within Washington.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 59 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $2,360 and $3,520, before packing or storage.

On the Yakima side there are 60 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (34 of them authorized for interstate work), and 10 around Walla Walla (4 interstate). For an in-state 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 Walla Walla.

Yakima has a population of about 98,000 and Walla Walla about 34,000. Yakima is considerably denser (3,481 people per square mile versus 2,426), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Tips for this move

For a move under about 150 miles you can often choose between an hourly and a flat rate—ask for both.
Confirm whether travel time between Yakima and Walla Walla is billed one way or round trip.
A single-day move is realistic here; schedule loading in the morning so the crew arrives in Walla Walla with daylight to spare.
Check Washington intrastate mover rules; many states require a state permit in addition to a USDOT number.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Yakima to Walla Walla?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,410 to $2,100 for a studio, $1,420 to $2,110 for a one-bedroom, $2,360 to $3,520 for a two-bedroom, $3,780 to $5,630 for a three-bedroom and $5,200 to $7,730 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Walla Walla from Yakima?

About 132 road miles (112 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 59 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Yakima and Walla Walla are in Washington, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Yakima to Walla Walla?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $290 to $400 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,140 to $1,670. 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 Yakima–Walla Walla corridor.
