Moving from Hattiesburg to Jackson is a short-haul move of roughly 103 road miles, heading northwest within Mississippi.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 2 h 29 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,720 and $2,550, before packing or storage.

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 173 around Jackson (113 interstate). For an in-state 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.

Hattiesburg has a population of about 48,000 and Jackson about 141,196. Jackson is the denser city (1,376 people per square mile versus 912 in Hattiesburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Tips for this move

For a move under about 150 miles you can often choose between an hourly and a flat rate—ask for both.
Confirm whether travel time between Hattiesburg and Jackson is billed one way or round trip.
A single-day move is realistic here; schedule loading in the morning so the crew arrives in Jackson with daylight to spare.
Check Mississippi intrastate mover rules; many states require a state permit in addition to a USDOT number.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Hattiesburg to Jackson?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,080 to $1,610 for a studio, $1,080 to $1,610 for a one-bedroom, $1,720 to $2,550 for a two-bedroom, $2,750 to $4,090 for a three-bedroom and $3,780 to $5,620 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Jackson from Hattiesburg?

About 103 road miles (87 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 2 h 29 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 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.

Do I need an interstate-licensed mover for an in-state move?

No. Because both Hattiesburg and Jackson are in Mississippi, this is an intrastate move regulated by the state rather than the FMCSA. Still, choosing a carrier with an active USDOT number is the easiest way to confirm the company is a registered motor carrier with insurance on file.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Hattiesburg to Jackson?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $260 to $360 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,110 to $1,640. 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 Hattiesburg–Jackson corridor.
