The route from Gulfport, MS to Lawrence, KS covers roughly 810 miles by road, a northwest-bound trip that falls into the 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 $3,760 to $5,590 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 14 h 40 min.
On the Gulfport side there are 66 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (51 of them authorized for interstate work), and 17 around Lawrence (14 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 Lawrence.
Gulfport has a population of about 72,000 and Lawrence about 95,000. Lawrence is the denser city (2,772 people per square mile versus 1,311 in Gulfport), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.
