Denver, CO → Jackson, MS · Long-distance move
About 1,140 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,870–$7,250, delivery in 3–7 days, 1,411 carriers on the Denver side and 173 in Jackson.
Jackson sits about 1,140 miles southeast of Denver, which makes this an interstate relocation from Colorado to Mississippi 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 $4,870 to $7,250 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 20 h 21 min.
On the Denver side there are 1,411 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (531 of them authorized for interstate work), and 173 around Jackson (113 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 Jackson.
Denver has a population of about 740,613 and Jackson about 141,196. Denver is considerably denser (4,674 people per square mile versus 1,376), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Mississippi than in Colorado, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

About 1,140 road miles (966 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 20 h 21 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Colorado 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 $1,620 to $2,290 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,040 to $3,000. 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 Denver–Jackson corridor.
