Reverse: Hilton Head Island → Waco

Moving from Waco to Hilton Head Island is a long-distance move of roughly 1,139 road miles, heading east from Texas to South Carolina.

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 $4,790 to $7,130 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 20 h 20 min.

On the Waco side there are 121 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (34 of them authorized for interstate work), and 62 around Hilton Head Island (37 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 Hilton Head Island.

Waco has a population of about 147,788 and Hilton Head Island about 38,000. Waco is considerably denser (1,561 people per square mile versus 911), so expect tighter loading conditions, parking permits or elevator reservations at the origin and easier truck access at the destination. Note that South Carolina does collect a state income tax, unlike Texas, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Waco to Hilton Head Island?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,920 to $2,850 for a studio, $2,880 to $4,280 for a one-bedroom, $4,790 to $7,130 for a two-bedroom, $7,670 to $11,410 for a three-bedroom and $10,550 to $15,690 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Hilton Head Island from Waco?

About 1,139 road miles (965 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 20 h 20 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 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 Texas into South Carolina 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 Waco to Hilton Head Island?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,620 to $2,290 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,040 to $2,990. 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 Waco–Hilton Head Island corridor.
