Moving from Gulfport to Tyler is a regional long-distance move of roughly 461 road miles, heading west from Mississippi to Texas.

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 $3,010 to $4,490 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 8 h 39 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 153 around Tyler (66 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 Tyler.

Gulfport has a population of about 72,000 and Tyler about 113,723. Tyler is the denser city (1,843 people per square mile versus 1,311 in Gulfport), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Texas is a higher-cost state than Mississippi, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Gulfport to Tyler?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,210 to $1,790 for a studio, $1,810 to $2,690 for a one-bedroom, $3,010 to $4,490 for a two-bedroom, $4,820 to $7,180 for a three-bedroom and $6,630 to $9,870 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Tyler from Gulfport?

About 461 road miles (391 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 8 h 39 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Mississippi into Texas 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Gulfport to Tyler?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $770 to $1,090 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,430 to $2,110. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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–Tyler corridor.
