Chattanooga, TN → Kerrville, TX · Long-distance move
About 1,037 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,550–$6,770, delivery in 3–7 days, 241 carriers on the Chattanooga side and 31 in Kerrville.
Kerrville sits about 1,037 miles west of Chattanooga, which makes this an interstate relocation from Tennessee to Texas that most movers classify as a long-distance move.
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 $4,550 to $6,770 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 3 to 7 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 18 h 35 min.
On the Chattanooga side there are 241 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (155 of them authorized for interstate work), and 31 around Kerrville (7 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 Kerrville.
Chattanooga has a population of about 194,144 and Kerrville about 25,000. The two cities have comparable density (1,272 and 1,068 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

About 1,037 road miles (879 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 18 h 35 min.
Expect a delivery window of 3 to 7 days after pickup. Carriers give a spread rather than a fixed date because long-distance trucks carry several shipments; a dedicated truck or expedited service shortens the window for an extra fee.
Yes. Crossing from Tennessee into Texas makes this an interstate move, so the carrier must hold active FMCSA operating authority (an MC number) in addition to its USDOT number. The company cards on this page flag which carriers are authorized for interstate work.
A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $1,520 to $2,140 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,950 to $2,860. Both save money versus a full-service crew but you do the loading, and container transit can take longer than a mover's delivery window.
Rates are highest in summer and around the last days of any month, when demand peaks. Mid-month, mid-week and winter dates are usually quoted below the standard rate. Booking four to eight weeks ahead gives you the widest choice of carriers on the Chattanooga–Kerrville corridor.
