Reverse: New Bedford → Hattiesburg

The route from Hattiesburg, MS to New Bedford, MA covers roughly 1,466 miles by road, a northeast-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 $6,010 to $8,940 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 25 hours (3 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 80 around New Bedford (56 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 New Bedford.

Hattiesburg has a population of about 48,000 and New Bedford about 101,834. New Bedford is the denser city (5,054 people per square mile versus 912 in Hattiesburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Massachusetts is a higher-cost state than Mississippi, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Hattiesburg to New Bedford?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,400 to $3,580 for a studio, $3,610 to $5,360 for a one-bedroom, $6,010 to $8,940 for a two-bedroom, $9,620 to $14,310 for a three-bedroom and $13,220 to $19,670 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is New Bedford from Hattiesburg?

About 1,466 road miles (1,242 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 25 hours (3 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Massachusetts 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 New Bedford?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,110 to $2,970 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,330 to $3,420. 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–New Bedford corridor.
