Weight and volume for 2 bedroom homes are estimating assumptions published in our methodology, not measured averages. A mover's survey replaces them with your actual inventory.
How weight changes this price
Interstate pricing is weight-based, so the shipment — not the floor plan — sets the total. At 2,645 miles our rate table applies cross-country move pricing, and every additional 1,000 lbs moves the line haul by roughly $923.
- 1 Bedroom on the same route: $3,800–$5,100 (2,400–3,800 lbs)
- 2 Bedroom (this page): $5,700–$7,600 (4,200–6,200 lbs)
- 3 Bedroom on the same route: $8,350–$11,150 (6,800–9,500 lbs)
If your inventory sits between two profiles, use the lower profile as a floor and the higher one as a ceiling until a surveyor weighs the shipment.
Truck and crew category
Moderate: two bedroom sets plus shared living space. Our rate table prices a shipment of this size on this corridor as part of a consolidated interstate load rather than a dedicated truck, which is what holds the per-mile figure at this level.
Packing on a 2 bedroom shipment
Full packing on this route raises the estimate to about $6,250–$8,350, roughly $650 more than the unpacked figure. Packing labor is priced against the 600–890 cu ft this profile assumes, not against the distance traveled, so the gap widens with home size rather than mileage.
Access at both ends
Our model assigns both Washington and Seattle an above-baseline access assumption. Shuttle service, long carries, and elevator reservations are the charges most likely to appear on a final invoice without appearing in this estimate.

Common questions
How much does it cost to move a 2-bedroom home from Washington to Seattle?
Moving a 2-bedroom home from Washington to Seattle is estimated at $5,700–$7,600. Our model assumes 4,200–6,200 lbs filling 600–890 cu ft, loaded by 3 movers over 4–6 hours, and charges about $923 of line haul for every 1,000 lbs across 2,645 miles. That range is model output rather than a price any mover has committed to.
How long does loading a 2-bedroom home take on this route?
Our model schedules 3 movers for 4–6 hours at the Washington end, sized to 600–890 cu ft of goods. Moderate: two bedroom sets plus shared living space. Stairs, long carries and rooms that are still unpacked when the crew arrives extend that window before any mileage is driven.
What does full packing add for a 2-bedroom home?
Full packing raises the modeled range to $6,250–$8,350, about $650 more, because packing labor and materials scale with the 600–890 cu ft this profile assumes rather than with the distance to Seattle.
What if the shipment weighs more than 6,200 lbs?
Weight above 6,200 lbs is billed at roughly $923 of line haul per additional 1,000 lbs on this corridor, which moves the total toward the 3 bedroom range of $8,350–$11,150. A surveyed binding or not-to-exceed estimate is what fixes it.
