Springfield, IL → Savannah, GA · Long-distance move
About 843 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,300–$6,390, delivery in 2–5 days, 58 carriers on the Springfield side and 285 in Savannah.
Moving from Springfield to Savannah is a long-distance move of roughly 843 road miles, heading southeast from Illinois to Georgia.
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 $4,300 to $6,390 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 15 h 14 min.
On the Springfield side there are 58 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (45 of them authorized for interstate work), and 285 around Savannah (170 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 Savannah.
Springfield has a population of about 112,989 and Savannah about 149,440. Springfield is considerably denser (1,872 people per square mile versus 1,384), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

About 843 road miles (715 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 15 h 14 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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.
Yes. Crossing from Illinois into Georgia 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.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,170 to $1,650 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,770 to $2,610. 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.
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 Springfield–Savannah corridor.
