Reverse: Memphis → Tyler

Memphis sits about 428 miles northeast of Tyler, which makes this an interstate relocation from Texas to Tennessee that most movers classify as a regional 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 $3,010 to $4,480 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 8 h 5 min.

On the Tyler side there are 153 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA in and around the city (66 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.

Tyler has a population of about 113,723 and Memphis about 609,647. The two cities have comparable density (1,843 and 2,132 people per square mile), so loading and unloading conditions are usually similar at both ends.

Frequently asked questions

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

Typical full-service estimates for this route are $1,210 to $1,790 for a studio, $1,810 to $2,690 for a one-bedroom, $3,010 to $4,480 for a two-bedroom, $4,820 to $7,170 for a three-bedroom and $6,630 to $9,860 for four or more bedrooms. Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items add to these figures.

How far is Memphis from Tyler?

About 428 road miles (362 miles in a straight line). Driving without overnight stops takes roughly 8 h 5 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 Tyler to Memphis?

A one-way rental truck for this distance typically runs $590 to $830 including mileage and fuel, and a portable container about $1,400 to $2,060. 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 Tyler–Memphis corridor.
