Questions about moving in Memphis

How many moving companies are there in Memphis?

162 carriers based in Memphis are registered with the US Department of Transportation to carry household goods for hire and updated their registration in the last two years. This page lists 150 of them, licensed moving companies first. 128 of the companies listed here are licensed for moves to other states.

How do I check that a Memphis mover is licensed?

Ask for the company’s USDOT number and look it up in the government’s public record (every listing here links to it). For a move to another state the mover also needs an active out-of-state license, shown as an MC number. For a move within Tennessee, also check the mover with the Tennessee Department of Revenue, Vehicle Services Division (Motor Carrier).

Do movers need a license for a local move in Memphis?

For-hire carriers hauling household goods within Tennessee need Intrastate Authority from the Department of Revenue and must have cargo insurance (Form H) on file, unless the vehicle is already registered under the federal Unified Carrier Registration. Ask to see the mover's Intrastate Permit Card or USDOT number. Send complaints to the Attorney General's Division of Consumer Affairs.

What is the cheapest way to move?

Move less. Every item you sell before moving day is one less thing to pack, load and pay to carry. Price it to go, and let the price drop each day until you move.
