Vehicle transport and freight in Memphis, TN.
Memphis is the logistics capital of the mid-South: the FedEx superhub, four Class I railroads and the Mississippi River all meet here. For us it is a staging point on the way west and north-west.

Straight answers
Do you go to Memphis regularly?
It is on both long lanes, so most weeks there is a truck within reach. It is rarely worth a dedicated trip from Spartanburg unless the load fills the truck.
How long is Spartanburg to Memphis?
About five hundred and seventy miles, eight and a half hours of driving, which is a single-driver day with the clock managed properly.
Can you serve BlueOval City at Stanton?
Stanton is forty miles east of Memphis, directly on I-40, so it is on the run.
Do you run team drivers for faster transit?
Ask. Team service costs more and we quote it only when it genuinely buys you a day.
