Hattiesburg, MS → Mountain View, CA · Cross-country move
About 2,248 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $7,500–$11,160, delivery in 7–14 days, 50 carriers on the Hattiesburg side and 308 in Mountain View.
Mountain View sits about 2,248 miles west of Hattiesburg, which makes this an interstate relocation from Mississippi to California that most movers classify as a cross-country 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 $7,500 to $11,160 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 7 to 14 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 39 hours (5 driving days).
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 308 around Mountain View (87 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 Mountain View.
Hattiesburg has a population of about 48,000 and Mountain View about 82,000. Mountain View is the denser city (6,889 people per square mile versus 912 in Hattiesburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. California is a higher-cost state than Mississippi, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

About 2,248 road miles (1,905 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 39 hours (5 driving days).
Expect a delivery window of 7 to 14 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 California 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 $3,060 to $4,320 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,030 to $4,450. 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 Hattiesburg–Mountain View corridor.
