Longview, TX → Biloxi, MS · Regional long-distance move
About 440 road miles heading east. Typical two-bedroom cost $2,940–$4,380, delivery in 1–3 days, 89 carriers on the Longview side and 55 in Biloxi.
Biloxi sits about 440 miles east of Longview, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Mississippi that most movers classify as a regional long-distance 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 $2,940 to $4,380 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 8 h 17 min.
On the Longview side there are 89 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (47 of them authorized for interstate work), and 55 around Biloxi (42 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 Biloxi.
Longview has a population of about 82,000 and Biloxi about 50,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,462 and 1,152 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Mississippi than in Texas, 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 Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 440 road miles (373 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 8 h 17 min.
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.
Yes. Crossing from Texas 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $600 to $850 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,410 to $2,080. 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.
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 Longview–Biloxi corridor.
