The men that moved us from Harriman to Lenoir City were amazing! Super friendly and took care of everything we needed. They said they couldn’t put liquids in their truck so be cautious of that! It wasn’t a problem for us at all though! Would definitely use them again!

So grateful for Hardy Jo’s! They worked on one of the hottest days and did a fantastic job and without complaint. We even had a hiccup where my building decided to redo the roof and didn’t tell me. And the guys worked with me to still get my stuff moved in. They are hard workers, it was a great valu...

Gouffon helped us with a big move this summer. Taylor worked with us to get the quote and set the dates. He was very good about offering flexible options. Prices were fair and competitive.

Gouffon Moving and Storage was the best choice for moving my Mom out of state to be near family. Our driver was Josh and our moving helper was Cody. Both Josh and Cody were extremely polite and respectful to me, my Mom and other family …

How many people actually move between Knoxville and Chicago, IL

Federal tax-filer records, 2022-2023 · about 455 miles apart

+51 net
90 out
141 in

Over the year, 90 people moved from Knoxville to Chicago, IL, and 141 came back the other way. At 455 miles this is a long-haul job, priced by weight and distance rather than by the hour. It also crosses a state line, so the company you hire must hold active interstate operating authority with the FMCSA.

Where this comes from: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023 — the IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns; the counts above are the people on those returns. County-level and about two years behind.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
