Our drivers pick up I-40 east of the LA basin and stay on it for most of the trip. The route runs through Flagstaff, Albuquerque, Amarillo, and Little Rock before reaching Memphis. It is high desert early, then flat plains and farmland. We plan the schedule around real driving days, not a best-case map.
A dedicated express truck makes the run in about three to four days. A shared load costs less. It delivers inside a wider window, up to three weeks from your first open date. Your coordinator confirms which option fits your dates before booking. Compare options on our long-distance moving page.

The crew wraps and pads your belongings, loads the truck, and logs an inventory so every item is accounted for before it leaves the curb.
Your coordinator tracks the truck along the I-40 corridor and gives you a delivery window for Memphis, with updates if weather slows the route.
We unload, place furniture, reassemble what we took apart, and check the inventory against what arrived before the crew leaves.
On a 1,810-mile move the choice is mostly about timing versus cost. Here is the honest difference so you can decide which one fits.
Your shipment shares truck space with other moves heading the same direction. It is the more affordable choice and a good fit when your Memphis move-in date is flexible.
Delivery lands inside a window, generally up to three weeks from your first available date. You get a narrowed date range as the truck nears Memphis.
A truck and driver assigned only to your move. Your belongings are not combined with anyone else's, so loading and delivery run on a tighter, more predictable schedule.
LA to Memphis runs about three to four days door to door. It costs more, and it is worth it when you need your things by a set date.
A lot of cross-country "movers" are brokers. They take your deposit, then sell the job to whichever carrier bids lowest, and you find out who is handling your belongings when a truck you have never heard of pulls up. Long-distance moves out of Los Angeles are run by Royal Moving Services Inc., a licensed carrier with its own trucks, its own crews, and its own federal authority.
That means one accountable party from your LA pickup to your Memphis delivery. Every interstate move carries the federally required liability coverage, with full-value protection available, and the terms are written into your quote before you sign.
The building stock is the first difference. Midtown blocks like Cooper-Young hold 1920s bungalows with porches and narrow back stairs. Downtown and South Main lean toward lofts and converted warehouses. East Memphis, Germantown, and Collierville bring larger suburban homes with garages. Your housing dollar goes much further than it does in LA.
The weather runs humid in summer, with the odd winter ice storm. We watch the forecast on the back half of the route and time the unload around it. Tell your coordinator the neighborhood and the building type. We sort the access details before the truck rolls out of Los Angeles.
Royal Moving crews load across the Los Angeles area and run the I-40 haul to Memphis as one licensed carrier. See the LA neighborhoods we serve below.
