Daytona Beach, FL → Myrtle Beach, SC · Regional long-distance move
About 399 road miles heading north. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,970–$4,420, delivery in 1–3 days, 88 carriers on the Daytona Beach side and 148 in Myrtle Beach.
The route from Daytona Beach, FL to Myrtle Beach, SC covers roughly 399 miles by road, a north-bound trip that falls into the regional long-distance 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 $2,970 to $4,420 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 7 h 35 min.
On the Daytona Beach side there are 88 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (41 of them authorized for interstate work), and 148 around Myrtle Beach (97 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 Myrtle Beach.
Daytona Beach has a population of about 75,000 and Myrtle Beach about 39,000. Myrtle Beach is the denser city (1,524 people per square mile versus 1,078 in Daytona Beach), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that South Carolina does collect a state income tax, unlike Florida, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 399 road miles (338 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 7 h 35 min.
Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Florida into South Carolina 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 $560 to $790 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,380 to $2,020. 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 Daytona Beach–Myrtle Beach corridor.
