Tempe sits about 1,694 miles west of Nashville, which makes this an interstate relocation from Tennessee to Arizona that most movers classify as a cross-country 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 $6,080 to $9,040 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 5 to 10 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 29 hours (4 driving days).
On the Nashville side there are 478 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (295 of them authorized for interstate work), and 886 around Tempe (350 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 Tempe.
Nashville has a population of about 721,074 and Tempe about 190,571. Tempe is the denser city (4,526 people per square mile versus 1,449 in Nashville), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day. Note that Arizona does collect a state income tax, unlike Tennessee, so factor that into the cost-of-living comparison.
