The route from Hattiesburg, MS to Carbondale, IL covers roughly 523 miles by road, a north-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 $3,320 to $4,940 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 9 h 43 min.
On the Hattiesburg side there are 50 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (36 of them authorized for interstate work), and 34 around Carbondale (24 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 Carbondale.
Hattiesburg has a population of about 48,000 and Carbondale about 22,000. Carbondale is the denser city (1,435 people per square mile versus 912 in Hattiesburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Illinois is a higher-cost state than Mississippi, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.
