Reverse: Memphis → Texarkana

The route from Texarkana, TX to Memphis, TN covers roughly 309 miles by road, a northeast-bound trip that falls into the regional long-distance move category for pricing purposes.

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 $2,600 to $3,870 with a full-service mover, and delivery usually takes 1 to 3 days after pickup because long-haul trucks consolidate several households per trip. Driving it yourself takes about 6 h 2 min.

On the Texarkana side there are 51 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (35 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.

Texarkana has a population of about 37,000 and Memphis about 609,647. Memphis is the denser city (2,132 people per square mile versus 1,152 in Texarkana), which often means shuttle trucks, parking restrictions or building move-in windows on delivery day.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,190 to $1,770 for a studio, $1,560 to $2,320 for a one-bedroom, $2,600 to $3,870 for a two-bedroom, $4,160 to $6,190 for a three-bedroom and $5,720 to $8,510 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Memphis from Texarkana?

About 309 road miles (262 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 6 h 2 min.

How long will the movers take to deliver?

Expect a delivery window of 1 to 3 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 Texas 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 Texarkana to Memphis?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $470 to $660 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,300 to $1,910. 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 Texarkana–Memphis corridor.
