Biloxi, MS → Mobile, AL · Short-haul move
About 62 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $1,160–$1,730, delivery in 1–2 days, 55 carriers on the Biloxi side and 168 in Mobile.
Mobile sits about 62 miles east of Biloxi, which makes this an interstate relocation from Mississippi to Alabama that most movers classify as a short-haul move.
Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 1 h 46 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,160 and $1,730, before packing or storage.
On the Biloxi side there are 55 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (42 of them authorized for interstate work), and 168 around Mobile (103 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 Mobile.
Biloxi has a population of about 50,000 and Mobile about 200,824. The two cities have comparable density (1,152 and 1,341 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $640 to $960 for a studio, $740 to $1,100 for a one-bedroom, $1,160 to $1,730 for a two-bedroom, $1,770 to $2,630 for a three-bedroom and $2,600 to $3,860 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.
About 62 road miles (52 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 1 h 46 min.
For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.
Yes. Crossing from Mississippi into Alabama 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 $210 to $300 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,080 to $1,580. 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 Biloxi–Mobile corridor.
