Long-distance moving from Tennessee: questions people ask
How many long-distance movers are there in Tennessee?
132 household-goods carriers based in Tennessee hold interstate operating authority on the federal register, 50% of the 266 listed movers in the state. The rest may only move you within Tennessee, or do long-distance jobs as agents of a van line that holds the authority.
Who is the largest long-distance mover in Tennessee?
By reported fleet, Colonial Van Lines Inc in Clarkrange, TN, with 24 trucks (USDOT 4071435). Fleet is self-reported and means capacity, not quality.
How much does a long-distance move from Tennessee cost?
Priced on weight and distance, from the published model. From Nashville: $3,978 – $5,304 for a two-bedroom home to New York City, NY (about 884 miles), $9,324 – $12,432 to Los Angeles, CA (about 2,072 miles), transport only. A three-bedroom home is about 15% more, a four-bedroom about 30% more.
Does a mover need an MC number to move me out of state?
Yes. Interstate household-goods carriers need active operating authority (an MC docket) as well as a USDOT number, insurance on file and a process agent. Check the authority on the FMCSA record, and ask whether the number on your bill of lading will be the carrier's own or a van line's.
Is this list a recommendation?
No. It is the federal register filtered to Tennessee household-goods carriers with interstate authority, ordered by reported fleet. Nobody pays to appear and we have used none of these companies.
