Bentonville, AR → Savannah, GA · Long-distance move
About 946 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,220–$6,280, delivery in 2–5 days, 57 carriers on the Bentonville side and 285 in Savannah.
Savannah sits about 946 miles east of Bentonville, which makes this an interstate relocation from Arkansas to Georgia that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $4,220 to $6,280 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 17 h 1 min.
On the Bentonville side there are 57 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (43 of them authorized for interstate work), and 285 around Savannah (170 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Savannah.
Bentonville has a population of about 60,000 and Savannah about 149,440. The two cities have comparable density (1,528 and 1,384 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Georgia is a higher-cost state than Arkansas, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 946 road miles (802 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 17 h 1 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Arkansas into Georgia makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,420 to $2,010 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,860 to $2,740. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Bentonville–Savannah corridor.
