Reverse: Jackson → St. Louis

Moving from St. Louis to Jackson is a long-distance move of roughly 515 road miles, heading south from Missouri 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 $3,110 to $4,630 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 9 h 35 min.

On the St. Louis side there are 645 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (464 of them authorized for interstate work), and 173 around Jackson (113 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 Jackson.

St. Louis has a population of about 278,144 and Jackson about 141,196. St. Louis is considerably denser (4,888 people per square mile versus 1,376), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from St. Louis to Jackson?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,240 to $1,850 for a studio, $1,870 to $2,780 for a one-bedroom, $3,110 to $4,630 for a two-bedroom, $4,980 to $7,410 for a three-bedroom and $6,850 to $10,190 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Jackson from St. Louis?

About 515 road miles (437 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 9 h 35 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Missouri 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 St. Louis to Jackson?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $830 to $1,170 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,480 to $2,180. 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 St. Louis–Jackson corridor.
