Buckeye, AZ → Hattiesburg, MS · Cross-country move
About 1,612 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $5,740–$8,540, delivery in 5–10 days, 87 carriers on the Buckeye side and 50 in Hattiesburg.
The route from Buckeye, AZ to Hattiesburg, MS covers roughly 1,612 miles by road, a east-bound trip that falls into the cross-country move category for pricing purposes.
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 $5,740 to $8,540 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 28 hours (4 driving days).
On the Buckeye side there are 87 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (50 of them authorized for interstate work), and 50 around Hattiesburg (36 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 Hattiesburg.
Buckeye has a population of about 125,445 and Hattiesburg about 48,000. Hattiesburg is the denser city (912 people per square mile versus 233 in Buckeye), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Labor and living costs run lower in Mississippi than in Arizona, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 1,612 road miles (1,366 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 28 hours (4 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 Arizona into Mississippi 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 $2,260 to $3,190 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,460 to $3,620. 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 Buckeye–Hattiesburg corridor.
