Reverse: Tyler → Jackson

The route from Jackson, MS to Tyler, TX covers roughly 351 miles by road, a west-bound trip that falls into the regional 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 $2,650 to $3,940 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 6 h 45 min.

On the Jackson side there are 173 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (113 of them authorized for interstate work), and 153 around Tyler (66 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 Tyler.

Jackson has a population of about 141,196 and Tyler about 113,723. Tyler is the denser city (1,843 people per square mile versus 1,376 in Jackson), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Texas is a higher-cost state than Mississippi, so budget a little more for destination-side help, deposits and first-month expenses. Texas levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Jackson to Tyler?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,140 to $1,700 for a studio, $1,590 to $2,360 for a one-bedroom, $2,650 to $3,940 for a two-bedroom, $4,230 to $6,300 for a three-bedroom and $5,820 to $8,660 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Tyler from Jackson?

About 351 road miles (297 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 45 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Texas 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 Jackson to Tyler?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $510 to $720 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,330 to $1,960. 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 Jackson–Tyler corridor.
