I’m Wade Bratcher, and the Bowling Green to Memphis run is the long west-Tennessee route my crew at Moving Matters drives a couple times a month. We pick up the Natcher Parkway out of BG, drop to I-24, then jump on I-40 west outside Nashville and ride it all the way to the Mississippi River. Three hundred thirty miles, two to three days transit.
US DOT and MC interstate authority on file — the Tennessee state line is paperwork we already handle.
Bowling Green to Memphis pricing
| Home size | Flat-rate band | Transit window |
|---|---|---|
| 1-bedroom | $2,250–3,150 | 2–3 days |
| 2-bedroom | $3,700–5,200 | 2–3 days |
| 3-bedroom | $5,350–7,500 | 2–3 days |
| 4-bedroom+ | $7,950–11,100 | 2–3 days |
Bands cover fuel across two states, the I-40 drive, crew lodging, and unload. We stage one crew night minimum on this run.
What the I-40 west run looks like
- I-40 length — west Tennessee is long and flat; we run it at posted speed.
- Memphis weigh station at Lakeland — we run legal weight every trip.
- FedEx and St. Jude transfers — corporate relocations into Germantown, Collierville, and East Memphis.
- Midtown bungalows — Cooper-Young and Central Gardens have narrow alleys; we send the 26-ft truck.
- U of M moves — University area apartments every August.
The shorter southern run is on the Nashville route page. Detailed pricing structure on the long-distance services page or back to the Moving Matters front page.
