Reverse: Salt Lake City → Hattiesburg

Salt Lake City sits about 1,672 miles northwest of Hattiesburg, which makes this an interstate relocation from Mississippi to Utah 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 $5,830 to $8,670 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 29 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 531 around Salt Lake City (306 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 Salt Lake City.

Hattiesburg has a population of about 48,000 and Salt Lake City about 218,428. Salt Lake City is the denser city (1,811 people per square mile versus 912 in Hattiesburg), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Utah 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

Expect a delivery spread of one to two weeks; plan temporary housing in Salt Lake City accordingly.
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.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Hattiesburg to Salt Lake City?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,330 to $3,470 for a studio, $3,500 to $5,200 for a one-bedroom, $5,830 to $8,670 for a two-bedroom, $9,320 to $13,870 for a three-bedroom and $12,820 to $19,080 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Salt Lake City from Hattiesburg?

About 1,672 road miles (1,417 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 29 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 Utah 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 Salt Lake City?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,320 to $3,270 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,510 to $3,690. 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–Salt Lake City corridor.
