Local moves in Memphis: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Memphis: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $38–$47 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $455 – $733.

| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $303 – $545 |

Hourly rates are scaled to Tennessee: hand movers there earn a median $18.35 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $38–$47 per mover per hour.

Before you book Cooper & Cooper Moving Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC257800
Cooper & Cooper Moving Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC257800. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask about the 2 out-of-service orders
2 of Cooper & Cooper Moving Inc's 6 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (33.3%, against 19.0% for all listed movers). Ask what failed, whether it was fixed, and which truck would do your move.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Cooper & Cooper Moving Inc driver holds a CDL, so its trucks are rated 26,000 lb or less. For a three- or four-bedroom home, ask how many trucks or trips the estimate assumes; on an hourly job a second trip is paid time.
- 4
Judge the estimate against $455 – $733
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Memphis at $455 – $733 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $4,950 – $6,600. A surveyed, written estimate from Cooper & Cooper Moving Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
