Reverse: Hattiesburg → Modesto

Hattiesburg sits about 2,180 miles east of Modesto, which makes this an interstate relocation from California to Mississippi 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 $7,390 to $10,990 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 38 hours (5 driving days).

On the Modesto side there are 392 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (205 of them authorized for interstate work), and 50 around Hattiesburg (36 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 Hattiesburg.

Modesto has a population of about 219,652 and Hattiesburg about 48,000. Modesto is considerably denser (5,081 people per square mile versus 912), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Labor and living costs run lower in Mississippi than in California, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Modesto to Hattiesburg?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,950 to $4,400 for a studio, $4,430 to $6,590 for a one-bedroom, $7,390 to $10,990 for a two-bedroom, $11,820 to $17,590 for a three-bedroom and $16,250 to $24,180 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Hattiesburg from Modesto?

About 2,180 road miles (1,848 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 38 hours (5 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 California 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 Modesto to Hattiesburg?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,990 to $4,220 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,970 to $4,360. 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 Modesto–Hattiesburg corridor.
