As of 2026-11-09. RideShipper estimate, updated 2026-11-09, based on 3,588 prices that customers reported paying in MoveAdvisor reviews, adjusted for U.S. diesel at $6.13 a gallon for that week (U.S. Energy Information Administration). In testing, the typical difference between an estimate and a reported price was about 20% of the estimate. This is an estimate, not a quote: the carrier sets the price. No pickup date was supplied, so this estimate uses November 2026. There is no seasonal direction adjustment for this route and month.
According to Census ACS 2024, the largest inflows are Texas, 8,574 (margin of error 2,693); Tennessee, 8,457 (margin of error 2,868); and Alabama, 8,215 (margin of error 3,035). The margins overlap, so the rank among those three is not sharp. Louisiana is fourth. The largest outflow is to Texas. The route list marks these as truck lanes. Texas to Mississippi and Alabama to Mississippi are two of the inbound pairs. Check mdot.ms.gov for a closure. The department's home page opened today did not print a chain rule or a contraflow map, so this note does not invent one.
The Gulf coast in hurricane season
The National Hurricane Center says the Atlantic season, which includes the Gulf, runs from 1 June through 30 November. Gulfport and Biloxi are the coastal cities. A booked coastal pickup can slip when a storm closes roads. Inland Jackson is still a truck move, farther from the surge zone. Read hurricane season and a booked shipment. Keesler Air Force Base is the coastal installation. Columbus Air Force Base, Naval Air Station Meridian, and the Naval Construction Battalion Center are the others. Inside the contiguous United States, a privately owned vehicle is largely the member's responsibility to move.
Campus and 30 days
The University of Mississippi and Jackson State are the campuses in the list. Register within 30 days after moving if you have a current registration and a valid plate from the previous state. A purchase must be registered within 30 business days. The registration page and the motor-vehicle FAQ do not state a safety, emissions, or VIN inspection for an ordinary passenger car. See the registration page.
