Gulfport, MS → Tulsa, OK · Long-distance move
About 658 road miles heading northwest. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,400–$5,050, delivery in 2–5 days, 66 carriers on the Gulfport side and 226 in Tulsa.
Moving from Gulfport to Tulsa is a long-distance move of roughly 658 road miles, heading northwest from Mississippi to Oklahoma.
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 $3,400 to $5,050 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 12 h 3 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 226 around Tulsa (104 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 Tulsa.
Gulfport has a population of about 72,000 and Tulsa about 416,209. Tulsa is the denser city (2,091 people per square mile versus 1,311 in Gulfport), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

About 658 road miles (558 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 12 h 3 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 Mississippi into Oklahoma 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 $980 to $1,380 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,610 to $2,360. 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 Gulfport–Tulsa corridor.
