Yes, all new members move in immediately. Everyone lives in at UW. Most of the houses utilize sleeping porches, at least for freshmen. From what I understand, UW lets women who sign up for dorms out of their housing contracts if they pledge.
OP, there will be many women rushing who are from out of state or at least from out of the area. You won't be the only one on her own. After you celebrate on bid day with your new sisters and bring your belongings over in your car, they can help you carry it up into the house. I think you can safely assume you'll need twin bedding, towels, toiletries, clothes, etc. no matter whether you're in a house or dorm. Either way you won't have a lot of personal space, so I wouldn't plan on bringing a lot of extras. It's been my experience that most women bring waaaaay too much stuff with them to college. I know in my case I only wore a fraction of the clothes I brought, and they became a burden.
