We shipped two vehicles with them for a cross country move. They were very upfront about estimates and both cars came in within $100 of the original quoted price. There were ice storms in TN in the middle of the first shipment and they were very communicative with the status of the vehicle. The second car was shipped two weeks later and actually showed up a day early. Also excellent communication with regards to that vehicle. Ship with confidence. Show more

In less than 3hrs Robyn was able to get transportation for my vehicle for the very next morning. My car went from CA to TN and arrived a day early. My vehicle was picked up around 11am on a Wednesday in TN, and arrived to the Bay Area, CA at 9am Friday morning. The transporters called me when they were here to pick up my car and the day before they arrived, they called to tell me they would be early. They also called when they were about 30 mins away as a heads up. Very professional and my car arrived in the exact condition it left in. I was very impressed on how quickly my vehicle arrived. I will definitely use them again in the future and recommend them to anyone who needs their car transported.Order #18218397 Show more

I worked with Maleah Sanders when it came to shipping my Mazda3 from Tennessee to Arizona. She took all the stress out of the process and it became way smaller of a hurdle than I had initially anticipated when planning my move across the country. She explained how the whole process worked, helped me accept a bid that was within my price range, and sent out clear communication on what to expect. My driver was great with prompt communication and very thorough during the inspection. My car arrived early without any hiccups and I appreciated the insurance options. I definitely recommend AmeriFreight for any vehicle shipping need! Show more

Recently I had two shipping experiences with Amerifreight, both very satisfactory. One was a shipment of two cars from Florida to California and one a motorcycle from Florida to Tennessee; both were coordinated by their rep Harry Davis. Harry was easy to reach on the phone as we were getting ready for the shipments, and always very helpful. In both cases pickup was in a matter of days and transportation time was fast for the distance. The prices were good as well. I recommend Amerifreight. Show more

I shipped a 2024 Toyota 4runner from Tennessee to California and I must say, Amerifreight had my back through a pretty shitty process. I scheduled my pickup from a dealership for 11/25 and the dealership kept pushing my pickup back. Gina at Amerifreight was an amazing dispatcher who was regularly in contact with me to ensure a truck was there when the shipper was ready. I needed my car by 11/12 and Gina found a shipper who transported it from 12/6-12/9. After reading the reviews of different dispatchers and shippers, I always had a fear something would happen but Amerifreight has strict guidelines that ensures they only get the best shippers.I highly recommend getting the $100 coverage. This allowed me to schedule and reschedule my shipping multiple times. In all, I ended up paying $1500 including the $100 coverage with a delivery window of 3 days. It was a lot but my car is here without any issues. Definitely happy with the result! Show more

Samantha Smith from AmeriFreight provided excellent support and communication when I needed to transport two vehicles from a major city in Texas to a rural area in Eastern Tennessee. This was my first time using a transportation service so I was nervous about leaving my cars in someone else's hands. I was expecting some sort of complication somewhere in the process, especially since one of the vehicles was inoperable.I'm very happy to say that this wasn't the case at all! It was super easy to get the process started by requesting an online quote from AmeriFreight's website. AmeriFreight located a driver (EGP Transportation LLC) within one business day! This was on the afternoon of 9/14. EGP picked up the vehicles at 9AM on 9/15 and delivered them on the evening of 9/16.I am still completely surprised with how fast and smooth the entire process was. Samantha maintained communication each step of the way, including reaching out to me after the pickup and also after the delivery to see how things went. I would definitely use AmeriFreight again in the future if I need to transport vehicles! Show more

  • Titanic Museum Attraction - Pigeon Forge

We all know the story of the Titanic. Before it was discovered in 1985, the ship was submerged in the waters for almost 75 years. In 1986, a second voyage to the wreck site was launched, and the proprietor of this museum co-led that expedition.

The items you see all throughout the ship are REAL and are worth more than $4 million. You will be able to pay respect to the 2,208 passengers and crew that were on the Titanic while touching a growing iceberg, experiencing 28-degree water, attempting to navigate the ship and more. This is an experience that you will never forget since it's completely unique and authentic.

AmeriFreight Auto Transport State Market Insight

Why Tennessee Is a Consistent and Well-Connected Car Shipping Market

What This Means for Your Car Shipment

Tennessee’s population of more than 6.9 million residents and nearly 2.9 million households supports steady vehicle relocation activity across the Southeast. Much of this demand comes from growing metro areas such as Nashville and Memphis, where healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing industries attract new residents and workforce relocations. Cities including Knoxville and Chattanooga also contribute to regional movement tied to universities, tourism, and expanding suburban communities, helping sustain consistent demand for Tennessee car shipping.

Several interstate highways serve as key vehicle transport routes through the state. Interstate 40 runs east to west across Tennessee and connects Memphis, Nashville, and Knoxville, forming one of the most important freight corridors in the region. Interstate 65 links Nashville with Alabama and Kentucky, while Interstate 24 connects Nashville with Chattanooga and continues toward Atlanta. A common shipment route moves vehicles between Nashville and Atlanta along the I-24 corridor, a frequently used route for regional relocations and professional moves.

Logistics activity around Memphis, along with military transfers connected to Fort Campbell, contributes to regular vehicle movement throughout the year. University relocations and healthcare employment in major cities also support ongoing transport demand. In smaller rural areas and mountain regions, carriers may coordinate pickup locations near interstate access points or nearby cities to maintain efficient routing.

Severe storms and occasional winter weather in eastern Tennessee can sometimes influence transport scheduling.

AmeriFreight Auto Transport works with vetted, fully insured, and FMCSA-registered carriers who regularly service Tennessee routes year-round, helping provide dependable scheduling.

Demand typically increases during peak summer relocation season and year-end moves, which can influence timing and pricing.

If you are planning Tennessee car shipping, understanding these major transport corridors helps set realistic expectations.
