Memphis, TN → Orlando, FL · Long-distance move
About 814 road miles heading southeast. Typical two-bedroom cost $4,100–$6,100, delivery in 2–5 days, 534 carriers on the Memphis side and 1,200 in Orlando.
Moving from Memphis to Orlando is a long-distance move of roughly 814 road miles, heading southeast from Tennessee to Florida.
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 $4,100 to $6,100 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 14 h 44 min.
On the Memphis side there are 534 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (397 of them authorized for interstate work), and 1,200 around Orlando (385 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 Orlando.
Memphis has a population of about 609,647 and Orlando about 333,888. Orlando is the denser city (2,781 people per square mile versus 2,132 in Memphis), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

About 814 road miles (690 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 14 h 44 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 Florida 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 $1,140 to $1,600 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,750 to $2,570. 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 Memphis–Orlando corridor.
