Reverse: Memphis → Provo

Memphis sits about 1,456 miles east of Provo, which makes this an interstate relocation from Utah to Tennessee 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 $5,670 to $8,430 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 25 hours (3 driving days).

On the Provo side there are 113 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (65 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.

Provo has a population of about 114,527 and Memphis about 609,647. The two cities have comparable density (2,762 and 2,132 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends. Tennessee levies no state income tax on wages, a frequent reason people make this exact move.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to move from Provo to Memphis?

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $2,270 to $3,370 for a studio, $3,400 to $5,060 for a one-bedroom, $5,670 to $8,430 for a two-bedroom, $9,070 to $13,490 for a three-bedroom and $12,470 to $18,550 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Memphis from Provo?

About 1,456 road miles (1,234 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 25 hours (3 driving days).

How long will the movers take to deliver?

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.

Does my mover need interstate authority for this move?

Yes. Crossing from Utah into Tennessee 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.

Is it cheaper to rent a truck or use a container for Provo to Memphis?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $2,100 to $2,960 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $2,320 to $3,410. 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.

When is the least expensive time to book this move?

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 Provo–Memphis corridor.
