Reverse: Riverside → Hattiesburg

Riverside sits about 1,934 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 $6,970 to $10,380 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 34 hours (4 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 1,224 around Riverside (674 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 Riverside.

Hattiesburg has a population of about 48,000 and Riverside about 323,057. Riverside is the denser city (3,879 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.

Tips for this move

Compare a full-service van line against a container service; for a small household the container often wins.
Ask about consolidated versus dedicated truck options—dedicated is faster but costs more.
Read the FMCSA 'Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move' booklet the carrier must provide.
Ship the car separately if you plan to fly; auto transport is priced by the mile like household goods.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,790 to $4,150 for a studio, $4,180 to $6,230 for a one-bedroom, $6,970 to $10,380 for a two-bedroom, $11,160 to $16,600 for a three-bedroom and $15,340 to $22,830 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Riverside from Hattiesburg?

About 1,934 road miles (1,639 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 34 hours (4 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 5 to 10 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 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.

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

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,740 to $3,860 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,750 to $4,040. 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–Riverside corridor.
