Major New York to Washington city routes
Each city pair is priced separately because distance and local service costs differ.
What drives the price between these states
The distance spread across this corridor is roughly 2,480 to 2,740 miles, so two households leaving the same state on the same day can receive very different quotes. Cross-country shipments carry the lowest per-mile rate on the rate table, but the total is high because the weight travels a long way and delivery spreads across a window rather than a single date.
Shipment weight is the second lever. Our model prices a 2-bedroom shipment at $5,750–$7,700 and a 4-bedroom shipment at $11,300–$15,100 over the same distance.
