Reverse: Hattiesburg → Pierre

Moving from Pierre to Hattiesburg is a long-distance move of roughly 1,277 road miles, heading southeast from South Dakota 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 $4,860 to $7,230 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 22 h 43 min.

On the Pierre side there are 2 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (2 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.

Pierre has a population of about 14,000 and Hattiesburg about 48,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,082 and 912 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Mississippi does collect a state income tax, unlike South Dakota, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,940 to $2,890 for a studio, $2,920 to $4,340 for a one-bedroom, $4,860 to $7,230 for a two-bedroom, $7,770 to $11,570 for a three-bedroom and $10,690 to $15,900 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Hattiesburg from Pierre?

About 1,277 road miles (1,082 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 22 h 43 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 South Dakota 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 Pierre to Hattiesburg?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,760 to $2,490 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,160 to $3,180. 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 Pierre–Hattiesburg corridor.
