Mississippi Van Lines

We are a family owned and operated moving and storage company. The McGehee family has been proving superior moving services since 1938. Now owned by Scott & Clay McGehee, Mississippi Van Lines carries on the traditions of quality service, performed by our own employees, at a reasonable price.

Local moves are performed at an hourly rate that is determined by the size of the crew. The time starts when the crew arrives at your residence and is stopped when the job is completed. We then add 1/2 hour (Jackson metropolitan area moves) travel time to the total time. We have a 4 hour minimum on all local moves.

All rates include the truck, manpower and equipment (dollies, pads, etc.) necessary to complete your move. If you need packing for your shipment, the same hourly rates apply and we charge for the packing materials actually used.

Any shipment that crosses state lines is an Interstate move. Rates for interstate moves are regulated by the Federal Motor Safety Administration and set by the individual carriers.

Mississippi Van Lines will be happy to provide you with a free, no obligation, in home estimate on your interstate move. We offer two types of pricing on interstate moves, binding and non-binding prices.

Non-Binding Prices-This pricing option is designed for the shipper who is not sure exactly what they will be moving at the time of the in home estimate. We rate the actual services performed a the tariff rates and apply the discount that you were given at the time of the estimate. The advantage of this type of pricing is that you can change your mind about what you want to move at the last minute.

Binding Prices-This option is designed for the shipper who knows exactly what services they want and exactly what is going to be moved. Our salesperson will walk through your home to determine the packing and weight for your shipment. The prices quoted at the time of the estimate is exactly what you will pay for your move. The only thing that can effect Binding Prices are destination charges, such as long carries or shuttles that we don’t know about at the time of the estimate.

Almost all of the prices we give on Interstate or Intrastate moves are binding.

For those people who need to delay delivery of their shipment, Mississippi Van Lines offers containerized storage. Your goods will be unloaded from our truck and put into large wooden containers inside of our building. The provides you with much better security than Mini-Storage facilities and allows us to continue your valuation coverage, since we retain controls of your shipment.

When your shipment is unloaded at the warehouse, your furniture is wrapped in padded paper and placed in those large wooden containers. Each crate is sealed, marked with your name and shipment ID and then stacked in our warehouse. There is a warehouse handling fee for this service. The warehouse handling fee covers your shipment both when it comes into the warehouse and when it is handled out.
