Knoxville, TN → Springfield, MO · Long-distance move
About 620 road miles heading west. Typical two-bedroom cost $3,480–$5,170, delivery in 2–5 days, 229 carriers on the Knoxville side and 135 in Springfield.
Springfield sits about 620 miles west of Knoxville, which makes this an interstate relocation from Tennessee to Missouri 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 $3,480 to $5,170 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 11 h 23 min.
On the Knoxville side there are 229 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (129 of them authorized for interstate work), and 135 around Springfield (106 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 Springfield.
Knoxville has a population of about 202,021 and Springfield about 169,847. The two cities have comparable density (1,933 and 2,053 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Note that Missouri does collect a state income tax, unlike Tennessee, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.

About 620 road miles (525 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 11 h 23 min.
Expect a delivery window of 2 to 5 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 Missouri 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 $940 to $1,320 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,570 to $2,310. 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 Knoxville–Springfield corridor.
