Long-distance moves Elite Moving actually drives — Hixson out to the Midwest and the Carolinas
When you book a long-haul with us, you are not handing your stuff to a broker. Elite Moving drives the truck. I bought my first long-haul rig in 2013 because the broker model had already burned three of my Hixson neighbors that year, and we have not handed a customer’s load to an outside carrier since.
How a long-distance run leaves the Hixson yard
- In-home or video walk-through, room-by-room inventory, true cubic feet pinned down.
- Binding flat rate in writing — fuel, tolls and crew already inside the number.
- Load day: pad-wrap on every piece, numbered tags, dedicated trailer or straight truck.
- Crew chief drives the route — usually I-75 north to Knoxville and on, I-24 west to Nashville, or I-59 south to Birmingham.
- Unload with the same crew, full inventory check-off, signed delivery sheet.

Released value at $0.60 per pound comes standard; full-value coverage up to $1,000,000 cargo per shipment is available when you ask. Tennessee household-goods movers license plus US DOT and MC authority are on file, and our movers are W-2 — never day labor we found that morning. If you’d rather start with a single corridor, our most-booked lanes live on the long-distance routes page and the Chattanooga to Nashville route shows pricing tiers in detail.

Our Hixson crew loads in Hixson and drives the whole route ourselves — nothing tacked on at the curb when we unload at the far end.
