The route from Charleston, SC to Memphis, TN covers roughly 701 miles by road, a west-bound trip that falls into the long-distance move category for pricing purposes.
At this distance carriers price by shipment weight and mileage rather than by the hour. A two-bedroom home (around 5,000 lb of goods) typically costs $3,690 to $5,490 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 12 h 47 min.
On the Charleston side there are 180 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (89 of them authorized for interstate work), and 534 around Memphis (397 interstate). For an interstate move you can book from either end; movers near the origin handle loading and are usually the better first call, while a destination-side company can be useful if you need storage or delivery-day help in Memphis.
Charleston has a population of about 159,423 and Memphis about 609,647. Memphis is the denser city (2,132 people per square mile versus 1,309 in Charleston), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Tennessee levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.
