Moving from Savannah to Hilton Head Island is a local move of roughly 35 road miles, heading northeast from Georgia to South Carolina.

Because the two cities are close together, most companies quote this move by the hour: a crew of two to four movers plus a truck, with the drive of about 1 h 6 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $1,140 and $1,690, before packing or storage.

On the Savannah side there are 285 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (170 of them authorized for interstate work), and 62 around Hilton Head Island (37 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 Hilton Head Island.

Savannah has a population of about 149,440 and Hilton Head Island about 38,000. Savannah is considerably denser (1,384 people per square mile versus 911), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Tips for this move

Label boxes by room in Hilton Head Island so unloading goes as fast as loading.
Keep essentials (chargers, documents, medication) in your own car rather than on the truck.
Ask for an hourly quote with a not-to-exceed cap; local crews in Savannah bill from the moment they leave the warehouse.
Reserve loading-zone parking or a building elevator in advance—waiting time is billable.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Savannah to Hilton Head Island?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $610 to $900 for a studio, $710 to $1,060 for a one-bedroom, $1,140 to $1,690 for a two-bedroom, $1,760 to $2,620 for a three-bedroom and $2,630 to $3,910 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Hilton Head Island from Savannah?

About 35 road miles (29 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 1 h 6 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

For a move this short, loading and delivery normally happen on the same day. Most crews finish a two-bedroom home in 5 to 8 hours plus the drive.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Georgia into South Carolina 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 Savannah to Hilton Head Island?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $190 to $260 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,050 to $1,550. 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 Savannah–Hilton Head Island corridor.
