Moving from Texas to Mississippi means crossing state lines, so any mover you hire must hold active interstate authority from the FMCSA. Between the largest cities of the two states—Houston and Jackson—the road distance is about 416 miles, which puts a typical move in the regional long-distance move bracket with a delivery window of 1 to 3 days.
Texas has about 29.1 million residents and Mississippi about 3 million. Living and labor costs are noticeably lower in Mississippi, so services bought at the destination (unpacking, storage, cleaning) usually cost less than in Texas. Unlike Texas, Mississippi collects a state income tax.
