Moving from Centreville, MS
Community of about 1,168 in Wilkinson County, Centreville is a small community, so an outbound interstate load is normally consolidated onto a trailer already routed nearby — book further ahead and expect a wider delivery window. Which matters, because the single biggest variable in an outbound quote from Mississippi is not the carrier you pick — it is the mileage on your lane and the season you load in.

Georgia is the shortest lane in the set below at roughly 432 miles, and it is still a single long day at roughly 8 hr with stops. Carriers quote a 2–4-day delivery window on it rather than a date, because federal hours-of-service rules and trailer consolidation both sit between load day and delivery.

A 2 bedrooms to North Carolina is what this origin looks like priced end to end. The drive is roughly 13 hr 30 min — the delivery window is the number that governs your first week.
What shapes an outbound move from Centreville
Centreville is the only incorporated place the Census records in Wilkinson County, so an outbound load here is effectively the county's moving market. Carriers route a trailer through the area rather than dispatching one for a single shipment, which is why booking lead time does more for your date than anything else.
The largest county bordering Wilkinson County is Adams County, with 28,746 residents, larger than this one, so agents based there often cover both. That move stays inside Mississippi and is intrastate.
Wilkinson County sits on the Mississippi state line, bordering Louisiana. That matters more than it sounds: a move of twenty minutes across that line is legally an interstate move, so it needs a carrier with federal household-goods authority and it is priced on weight and distance rather than by the hour. Short interstate hops are the moves people most often assume are local, and they are not.
Statewide, Centreville sits 92nd of the 102 places the Census records in Mississippi. Smaller origins are almost always served by a trailer already routed through the region, which is why lead time buys more here than carrier shopping does.
Wilkinson County's population is down about 5.5% since 2020 — roughly 468 fewer residents. Outbound is the dominant direction here, which cuts both ways: trailers leaving the area are easy to find, but the return leg is thin, so carriers price the lane against a partly empty backhaul.
Wilkinson County is the 75th-largest of Mississippi's 82 counties, with about 0.3% of the state's residents. Outbound loads from counties this size are usually picked up by a carrier routed through the area, so a flexible load date is worth more here than it is in the state's biggest metro.
How far Centreville is from where people move
Measured from Mississippi's population-weighted centre rather than Centreville — this site holds metro coordinates only for its corridor cities, so treat these as corridor-scale figures. The drive column is your car; the delivery window is your furniture, and the two are not the same number.

Licensing
Is your move out of Centreville interstate?
A move that starts and ends inside Mississippi is an intrastate move, governed by Mississippi law rather than by the FMCSA. Different licence, different complaint process, and usually different pricing — intrastate work is commonly billed hourly while interstate work is billed on weight and distance. Verify a mover's state authority with the Mississippi agency that oversees motor carriers before you book, and do not assume a USDOT number alone covers an in-state move.
The moment your shipment crosses the Mississippi state line it is an interstate move under federal law. The carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority — a USDOT number plus household-goods authority — must give you the federal "Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move" booklet, and must price the move against a published tariff rather than an hourly rate. You can check any USDOT number yourself on the FMCSA SAFER system before you sign anything.

Moving from Centreville: common questions
Georgia is about 432 miles, Florida is about 611 miles, and Texas is about 670 miles. Measured from Mississippi's centre rather than from Centreville, because this site holds metro coordinates only for its corridor cities — treat these as corridor-scale figures and confirm door-to-door mileage with your carrier. A loaded interstate shipment on the shortest of those delivers in a 2–4-day window.
Population figures are US Census estimates. Distances are geometric road estimates from this site's documented model, not routed door-to-door mileage.
