Reverse: Jackson → Juneau

Moving from Juneau to Jackson is a cross-country move of roughly 3,209 road miles, heading east from Alaska to Mississippi.

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 $8,900 to $13,250 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 56 hours (7 driving days).

On the Juneau side there are 7 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (1 of them authorized for interstate work), and 173 around Jackson (113 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 Jackson.

Juneau has a population of about 32,000 and Jackson about 141,196. Jackson is the denser city (1,376 people per square mile versus 12 in Juneau), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Labor and living costs run lower in Mississippi than in Alaska, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home. Note that Mississippi does collect a state income tax, unlike Alaska, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $3,560 to $5,300 for a studio, $5,340 to $7,950 for a one-bedroom, $8,900 to $13,250 for a two-bedroom, $14,240 to $21,190 for a three-bedroom and $19,590 to $29,140 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Jackson from Juneau?

About 3,209 road miles (2,720 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 56 hours (7 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Alaska into Mississippi 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 Juneau to Jackson?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $4,500 to $6,350 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $3,880 to $5,710. 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 Juneau–Jackson corridor.
