Hattiesburg is close enough that some movers treat it like an afterthought — squeeze it in between two bigger jobs, split the load across whichever truck has room that day. We don’t run our Hattiesburg moves that way. It’s a 30-mile drive down I-59, about 40 minutes door to door, and we treat it with the same planning we’d put into a job three times the distance, because a short drive doesn’t make a move simple. It’s still your whole household on a truck.
What actually matters on a run this short is timing, not mileage. We can load in Laurel in the morning and have your things off the truck in Hattiesburg before lunch, which means a lot of our Hattiesburg customers do a same-day load-and-deliver instead of spreading it across two days. That only works if the crew that packs the truck is the same crew that unloads it — nobody re-explains which boxes go upstairs, nobody re-wraps furniture that already got wrapped once. One crew, one truck, one trip down I-59.
The most common wrinkle we see on this route isn’t the drive — it’s the calendar. Closing on the Hattiesburg side falls a few days after you’re out of your Laurel place, or the reverse. Instead of asking you to figure out a short-term rental or lean on family for a week, we can hold your belongings at our climate-controlled warehouse at 2204 Ellisville Blvd and run them down to Hattiesburg the moment you’re cleared to move in. It’s our own building, not space we’re renting from a separate storage company, so there’s no second handoff and no second company to coordinate with. Boyd Lassiter, our lead crew foreman, personally logs anything that goes into the warehouse so nothing gets lost between the Laurel pickup and the Hattiesburg drop-off, however many days apart they end up being.
What’s included on the Hattiesburg run
- Full load in Laurel and full unload in Hattiesburg by the same crew
- Same-day service available for most home sizes given the short drive time
- Blanket-wrapping and furniture protection standard on every load
- Short-term or extended storage at our Ellisville Blvd warehouse if your dates don’t align
- Flexible morning or afternoon load windows since we’re not routing around a long haul
Whether you’re headed to USM, a new job on Hardy Street, or just a bigger yard on the Hattiesburg side of the county line, call our office and Simone can walk you through timing and get a written estimate started the same day.
Why the Pine Belt trusts this crew
What sets Harper Transfer & Storage apart
The people who answer your first call are the same people lifting the last box off the truck — same faces, same truck, no handoff in between.
No Mid-Job Crew Swaps
Boyd’s four-person team rides the truck from your old address to your new one. Whoever loads the sofa is still there to set it down — we don’t pull people off your job to patch a gap on somebody else’s.
Payroll Crew, Not Rented Labor
Every name on the truck is on our own payroll and answers to Boyd, who’s led this same four-person team for ten years. Nobody gets pulled in for a day through a gig app.
A Registered Mississippi Carrier
We keep our Mississippi household-goods carrier registration current and insurance on every load. Need proof for a Jones County property manager or HOA? A certificate goes out same-day.
Trent Maps The Route Before We Load
New-construction streets past Sandersville that GPS hasn’t caught up with yet, a gate check-in in Bay Springs, log trucks backing up US-11 — Trent has the route worked out before the truck leaves the yard.
You Get Cole, Not A Call Center
Dial the Ellisville Blvd number and Cole, Simone, or one of the office crew picks up — not a script somewhere out of state. The arrival window we give you holds, and moving your date costs nothing.
Long-distance
Long-distance moves out of Laurel
Reuben or Boyd rides the whole way — loads it in Laurel, drives it, and is still on the truck when it opens at the other end. Nothing gets handed off to a different crew partway there.
Packed like it’s ours to keep
What your furniture goes through between here and there
Nothing Travels Uncovered
Nadia trains the crew to blanket and shrink-wrap dressers and cushions right where they stand in the room — not out in the hallway on the way to the truck.
We Protect The House, Not Just The Furniture
Corner guards and floor runners go down at both ends before the first box moves. That’s how neither your old place nor the new one ends up with a scuffed wall.
We Take It Apart, We Put It Back Together
Bed frames, dining tables, cribs — the crew disassembles what needs it for the ride and reassembles everything at the new address. No leftover screws in a bag on your counter.
A Box Just For The Fragile Stuff
TVs, mirrors, and artwork get their own carton with real corner padding, not a spot wedged behind a couch cushion because it was the only room left.
Ramps And Straps, Not Bare Backs
Anything heavy rides on a dolly with a real tie-down strap holding it, so nothing gets dragged across a floor or hauled up a staircase by muscle alone.
No Handoff At Lunch
There’s no relief shift and no fresh face showing up after noon. The crew that loaded your first box is still there for the last one, same day, same faces.

How it works
Three steps. One crew the whole way.
01
Give Us The Basics
Both ZIP codes and a ballpark room count is enough for Simone to send a written number back the same day — no in-person walkthrough required just to get a figure.
02
A Named Crew Goes On The Calendar
Lock in a date and Boyd’s specific four-person crew and truck are booked under your name, not a general slot. If your building needs a certificate of insurance first, we get it sent before move day.
03
They Load It, They Unload It
Your crew arrives in the window we promised, pads and wraps whatever needs it, and drives the truck themselves to wherever it’s going — no different faces waiting at the other end.
Ready to put your move on the schedule?
Whoever picks up when you call is on the truck in your driveway on move day — we don’t hand your job to a different crew or a subcontractor partway through. Give us your details and expect a number back the same day.
