Arizona — Phoenix above all — is a major destination for Tennessee retirees and remote workers. The route rides I-40 almost the whole way before dropping south into the Valley, making it a smooth four-to-seven-day door-to-door move.

The route: West on I-40 through Memphis, Oklahoma City, and Albuquerque, then south on I-17 into the Valley of the Sun.

  • Many Arizona retirement communities have HOA move-in rules and gate access procedures; send them with your quote request and we'll coordinate.
  • Tucson and Flagstaff deliveries price slightly differently than Phoenix metro — mention your exact city for an accurate quote.
