Reverse: Jacksonville → Savannah

Moving from Savannah to Jacksonville is a short-haul move of roughly 141 road miles, heading south from Georgia to Florida.

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 3 h 8 min counted as billable travel time. A typical two-bedroom household lands between $2,090 and $3,110, 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 745 around Jacksonville (398 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 Jacksonville.

Savannah has a population of about 149,440 and Jacksonville about 1 million. The two cities have comparable density (1,384 and 1,271 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Florida levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Savannah to Jacksonville?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,230 to $1,830 for a studio, $1,250 to $1,860 for a one-bedroom, $2,090 to $3,110 for a two-bedroom, $3,340 to $4,970 for a three-bedroom and $4,590 to $6,830 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Jacksonville from Savannah?

About 141 road miles (120 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 3 h 8 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 2 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 Georgia into Florida 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 Jacksonville?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $290 to $420 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,150 to $1,690. 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–Jacksonville corridor.
