Trusted by Texas Families Since 2003
Punctual, good and professional. Condor Moving System is my go-to moving guys now. Fairly priced for the level of professional moving service they provide to their customers. They were very good in communication to me and among themselves. I have had many bad experiences with multiple movers before it. Condor is the first ever company that I found nobody to complain about, which is maybe a pretty rare thing to say about relocators.Thomas C Davison
Movers did a great moving job even though it was a not smooth and it's a very long job. Best value for the money we spend. They stayed professional and were kind throughout the move process. They recognized my items and if I needed to change the things, they did it for me rapidly. Very friendly teamwork. Will surly use them again!Denis Tanney

Moving Between Texas and Mississippi Since 2003
Condor Moving Systems is a licensed interstate mover that handles household and office relocations between Texas and Mississippi in both directions.
Mississippi is one of the shorter interstate lanes out of Texas — Houston to the Gulf Coast is under 400 miles. The coast, the Jackson metro and the north of the state each bring different conditions. Your shipment is inventoried and tagged at pickup, travels on our equipment, and is delivered by a crew working from that same inventory.
Condor operates from locations in Fort Worth and Houston and serves the entire state of Texas, running its own trucks and crews rather than subcontracted labor.
What we handle on this route:
- Household moves, Texas to Mississippi
- Household moves, Mississippi to Texas
- Full and partial packing
- Custom crating for art, mirrors and glass
- Office and corporate relocation
- Storage in transit between dates
- Specialty items and difficult pieces
- Full inventory with numbered tags
How Far Is It From Texas to Mississippi?
A Texas to Mississippi move covers roughly 370 to 750 miles depending on which Texas city you leave and whether you are heading for the Gulf Coast, Jackson or north Mississippi. Interstate moves are scheduled with a delivery spread rather than a single guaranteed date, because a trailer carries more than one household. Your estimate states the window for your specific route and dates.
| Route | Approx. driving distance | Main corridor |
|---|---|---|
| Houston → Gulfport | 440 miles | I-10 east |
| Houston → Jackson | 440 miles | US 59 / I-20 |
| Dallas–Fort Worth → Jackson | 410 miles | I-20 east |
| Dallas–Fort Worth → Tupelo | 490 miles | I-30 to US 78 |
| Houston → Hattiesburg | 390 miles | I-10 to US 49 |
| Austin → Jackson | 610 miles | I-10 to I-20 |
| San Antonio → Gulfport | 690 miles | I-10 east |
| Dallas–Fort Worth → Oxford | 480 miles | I-30 to I-55 |
Distances are approximate driving miles and will vary with routing, weather and road conditions. Transit time is quoted per shipment.
How Much Does It Cost to Move From Texas to Mississippi?
An interstate move is priced on the weight or volume of your shipment plus mileage — not by the hour. That is the key difference from a local move. A crew billed hourly has an incentive to work slowly; a shipment priced on weight and distance does not, which is why interstate moves are quoted this way.
What Determines Your Price
- Weight or volume of the shipment
- Distance between origin and destination
- Packing services, full or partial
- Packing materials and custom crating
- Specialty items such as pianos or safes
- Stairs, elevators and long carries at either end
- Shuttle service where a tractor-trailer cannot reach
- Storage in transit, if dates do not line up
- Valuation coverage you select
- Time of year and date flexibility
How to Keep the Cost Down
- Purge before the estimate, not after — you pay to move weight
- Book outside the May to August peak if you can
- Give a flexible delivery window rather than a fixed date
- Pack what you reasonably can yourself
- Take an accurate inventory so the estimate is not padded
- Sort out condo and HOA paperwork early to avoid a wasted trip
- Ask about consolidating with another shipment on the same lane
- Measure oversized furniture against the new doorways first
Interstate household moves are regulated by the FMCSA. Condor provides the federal Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move booklet with interstate estimates, and your written estimate shows the expected charges before loading day.
What to Expect Delivering in Mississippi
Mississippi is a short lane where the weather and the property do the work. Hurricane exposure on the coast, humidity, rural access and raised construction all shape the delivery. Here is what we plan for.
Gulf Coast Hurricane Exposure
Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30 and the Mississippi coast is directly exposed. When a named storm is tracking toward the delivery area, dates are adjusted and shipments already in transit are held in secure storage until delivery is safe.
Raised & Elevated Homes
A great deal of coastal and low-lying Mississippi housing is raised above grade, sometimes a full storey, with an exterior staircase as the only way in. That changes crew size and time significantly and should be identified when the move is quoted.
Humidity & Storage
Mississippi humidity is hard on cardboard, upholstery, paper and anything left in an unconditioned space. Boxes are loaded to keep weight off soft goods, and we flag items that should not sit in a garage or under-house storage on arrival.
Rural & Unpaved Access
Much of Mississippi delivery is outside town limits, where the last stretch is gravel or dirt and low-lying sections wash out after heavy rain. Where a full-size truck cannot reach the house we shuttle in with a smaller vehicle.
Short-Haul Timing
Houston to Jackson or the coast is around 400 miles, so many shipments on this lane deliver the next day. It is still a regulated interstate move, quoted on weight or volume and mileage rather than by the hour.
University Move Weeks
Oxford and Starkville compress a great deal of moving into the weeks around the Ole Miss and Mississippi State calendars, and campus-area streets get very tight. Those dates book out early.

How an Interstate Move Works
- Step 1
Survey
An in-home or virtual walkthrough of every room, closet, garage and attic, so the estimate is built on your actual inventory.
- Step 2
Written Estimate
You receive the expected charges in writing, with packing, materials, access and any shuttle itemized rather than added later.
- Step 3
Schedule Locked
On approval we reserve the crew and equipment, confirm your delivery window and start on any condo or HOA paperwork.
- Step 4
Pack & Load
Everything is padded, inventoried and tagged. You get a copy of the inventory before the trailer leaves.
- Step 5
Delivery in Mississippi
We check the shipment in against that same inventory, place furniture in the rooms you designate and reassemble what we took apart.

Texas to Mississippi Moving FAQ
How much does it cost to move from Texas to Mississippi?
An interstate move from Texas to Mississippi is priced on the weight or volume of your shipment plus the mileage, not by the hour. Because this is one of the shorter interstate lanes out of Texas, mileage carries less weight in the price than the size of the shipment and the access at each end, particularly on raised coastal homes. Condor provides a written estimate before your shipment is loaded.
How long does a move from Texas to Mississippi take?
Houston to Jackson or Gulfport is about 440 miles and Dallas–Fort Worth to Jackson about 410, so many shipments on this lane deliver the next day. Your estimate states the delivery window for your specific route and dates.
My Mississippi house is raised with exterior stairs. Does that matter?
Yes, quite a lot. A raised house with an exterior staircase changes both crew size and the time a delivery takes. Tell us when you request the estimate, ideally with a photo, so the crew and the price reflect the actual conditions rather than an assumption.
Can you move during hurricane season?
Yes. Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30 and Condor moves throughout it. When a named storm is tracking toward the delivery area, dates are adjusted and shipments already in transit are held in secure storage until delivery is safe rather than driven into the weather.
Which Mississippi cities does Condor deliver to?
Condor delivers throughout Mississippi, including Jackson, Madison, Ridgeland, Brandon, Flowood, Gulfport, Biloxi, Ocean Springs, Bay St. Louis, Hattiesburg, Laurel, Meridian, Tupelo, Oxford, Starkville, Southaven, Olive Branch, Vicksburg and Natchez.
Is Condor Moving Systems licensed for interstate moves?
Yes. Condor Moving Systems operates under USDOT 1126171 and MC 458180 for interstate moves and TxDMV 006041428C within Texas. Interstate household moves are regulated by the FMCSA, and Condor provides the federal Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move booklet with interstate estimates.
What if my Mississippi home is not ready when my shipment arrives?
Condor offers storage in transit for gaps between move-out and move-in. Your goods stay inventoried so the same shipment is redelivered without a second full pack. Tell your moving consultant if your closing or lease date is uncertain so the schedule is built with that in mind.
