Sketch out your Memphis move
Take these as rough, back-of-napkin figures rather than a commitment. They’re here so you can sanity-check a budget before calling or sending the free quote form. The number Yolanda and I put our name to comes after a quick look around your place.
Local jobs, billed hourly
- Studio or one-bedroom: two movers over about 3–5 hours — roughly $390–$610 at $124.
- Two-bedroom: two movers over about 5–8 hours — in the range of $680–$1,050.
- Three-bedroom: a third mover at $174/hr over 6–10 hours — think $1,130–$1,780.
- Four-plus bedrooms or a full house: generally a flat day-long job, around $1,860–$2,950 once we account for volume and access.
What the hourly figure already covers
Baked into that rate: the movers’ pay, the truck itself, the trip out from our yard, and each moving pad, dolly, wardrobe carton and roll of shrink-wrap that comes along. Travel and fuel add nothing, and a regular staircase or working elevator leaves the total alone.

Bottom line
Nothing above binds either side. What you actually pay depends on the inventory, any long stair hauls, how close the truck can park, and whether the weather cooperates. Call us or submit the free quote form, and you’ll usually have a genuine written flat price in hand by day’s end.
Treat these figures as a rough sketch, nothing you are held to. Your real written flat rate turns on the actual inventory, how loading and access work at both ends, whether a staircase or a freight elevator comes into it, how narrow the driveway is, and the highway miles behind the wheel. A one-bedroom above a Downtown storefront and a four-bedroom out in Bartlett sit in different tiers, and a long haul east to Nashville is nothing like a quick hop over to East Memphis.
