Reverse: Montgomery → Hattiesburg

Montgomery sits about 228 miles northeast of Hattiesburg, which makes this an interstate relocation from Mississippi to Alabama that most movers classify as a regional long-distance move.

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 $2,140 to $3,180 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 2 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 4 h 38 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 172 around Montgomery (94 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 Montgomery.

Hattiesburg has a population of about 48,000 and Montgomery about 195,300. Montgomery is the denser city (1,255 people per square mile versus 912 in Hattiesburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,090 to $1,630 for a studio, $1,280 to $1,910 for a one-bedroom, $2,140 to $3,180 for a two-bedroom, $3,420 to $5,090 for a three-bedroom and $4,700 to $6,990 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Montgomery from Hattiesburg?

About 228 road miles (193 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 4 h 38 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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Mississippi into Alabama 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 Hattiesburg to Montgomery?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $380 to $540 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,220 to $1,800. 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–Montgomery corridor.
