Reverse: Montgomery → Savannah

Montgomery sits about 351 miles west of Savannah, which makes this an interstate relocation from Georgia to Alabama that most movers classify as a regional long-distance 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 $2,670 to $3,980 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 45 min.

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 172 around Montgomery (94 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 Montgomery.

Savannah has a population of about 149,440 and Montgomery about 195,300. The two cities have comparable density (1,384 and 1,255 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Labor and living costs run lower in Alabama than in Georgia, which tends to make destination-side services such as unpacking or storage cheaper than the same services back home.

Tips for this move

Ask whether the carrier will use one truck end to end or transfer your goods at a terminal.
Weigh the cost of full-value protection against the released-value default of 60 cents per pound.
Book four to six weeks out for summer dates on the Savannah–Montgomery corridor.
Photograph high-value items before loading and keep the inventory sheet the crew gives you.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,160 to $1,720 for a studio, $1,600 to $2,390 for a one-bedroom, $2,670 to $3,980 for a two-bedroom, $4,280 to $6,370 for a three-bedroom and $5,880 to $8,750 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Montgomery from Savannah?

About 351 road miles (297 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 45 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 Georgia into Alabama 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 Montgomery?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $510 to $720 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,330 to $1,960. 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–Montgomery corridor.
