Moving costs in Birch Bay, WA
Birch Bay is a small Whatcom County community, so most crews servicing it are actually based out of Bellingham or Blaine.
A two-mover crew with a truck runs $100 to $180 per hour, while a three-mover crew runs $150 to $250 per hour. By home size, expect $480 to $900 for a studio or 1-bedroom, $1,400 to $3,300 for a 2-to-3-bedroom home, and $3,000 to $6,000 or more for a 4-bedroom-plus house. A cross-state or interstate move runs much higher, anywhere from $5,000 to $19,000 or more depending on weight and distance.
Because your crew is driving in from another town, ask exactly how they calculate travel time — the clock often starts when they leave their base and doesn't stop until they're back. Birch Bay's tight lanes, gravel roads, and multi-level condos can also trigger a long-carry or shuttle fee if the truck can't park near your door, so flag your access situation ahead of time.

Birch Bay refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Whatcom County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 39% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
