The route
A genuine long haul at 2,840 miles from Washington to Florida. Almost all of these move as consolidated freight: your goods share a trailer and the carrier quotes 7 to 14 days rather than a date. It is why a two-bedroom home here runs $12,780 – $17,040 instead of scaling straight with distance, and also why there is more handling and a looser schedule.

How these figures are calculated
At the Port Saint Lucie end
For a local crew after delivery, the largest licensed carriers within 30 miles of Port Saint Lucie: A-1 Moving & Storage Comapny (Jupiter, 10 trucks), Seal Van Lines Inc (Fort Pierce, 6 trucks), College Hunks Hauling Junk & Moving (Port Saint Lucie, 5 trucks), Charles Sherman Movers Inc (Fort Pierce, 4 trucks).
Rules that apply to this move
Because the truck crosses from Washington into Florida, 49 CFR Part 375 applies: a written estimate before loading, no more than 110% of a non-binding estimate collected at delivery, and full-value protection unless you choose released value in writing. See binding vs non-binding estimates and valuation explained.
Before you book Spokane to Port Saint Lucie
Insist on a survey
Over 2,840 miles the price is driven almost entirely by weight. A quote given without a video or in-home survey is a guess that gets revised upward on loading day, and at this distance the revision is expensive.
Keep full-value protection
It is the default on an interstate move. Signing it away for released value means 60 cents per pound, about $18 for a 30 lb television, after 2,840 miles of handling.
Arriving in Port Saint Lucie
A local move inside Port Saint Lucie later — across town, out of temporary housing — is billed by the hour: about $455 – $733 for a two-bedroom home and $759 – $1,344 for three bedrooms.
