Reverse: Jackson → Longview

Moving from Longview to Jackson is a regional long-distance move of roughly 314 road miles, heading east from Texas 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 $2,520 to $3,750 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 7 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 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.

Longview has a population of about 82,000 and Jackson about 141,196. The two cities have comparable density (1,462 and 1,376 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.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,140 to $1,700 for a studio, $1,510 to $2,250 for a one-bedroom, $2,520 to $3,750 for a two-bedroom, $4,030 to $6,000 for a three-bedroom and $5,550 to $8,250 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Jackson from Longview?

About 314 road miles (266 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 7 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 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Longview to Jackson?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $470 to $670 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,300 to $1,910. 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 Longview–Jackson corridor.
