At Mitchell Moving, we’re your local experts, committed to making your move seamless and stress-free. Here’s everything you need to know to navigate your relocation in the Scruffy City with ease!

Knoxville blends small-town charm with big-city opportunities.

With a population of over 190,000 in 2025 and housing costs about 20% below the national average, Knoxville offers affordability and a strong job market. From the walkable streets of Fourth and Gill to the suburban serenity of Farragut, there’s a neighborhood for everyone.

Moving can be daunting, but with Mitchell Moving’s expert advice, you’ll be settled in no time. Here are our top tips:

1. Plan Ahead with a Moving Checklist

Start 4–6 weeks early, especially during peak season (May–September). Your checklist should include:

• Scheduling your move with Mitchell Moving (call us at 865-370-8088).
• Updating utilities and your address.
• Decluttering—donate or sell items to lighten your load.

2. Pack Like a Pro

Efficient packing saves time and stress. Try these strategies:

• Label Clearly: Mark boxes with contents and destination rooms. Use color-coded tape for quick unpacking.
• Protect Valuables: Our packing services use high-quality materials for fragile items like heirlooms or electronics. Ask about our professional packing options at knoxmover.com/moving-services/packing-services/.
• Essentials Box: Pack toiletries, clothes, chargers, and documents for your first night.

3. Navigate Knoxville’s Logistics

Knoxville’s weather can be tricky, with hot summers and occasional winter snow. We recommend moving in milder months like April or October. For downtown high-rise moves, we coordinate with building management for elevator access and parking permits to ensure a smooth process.

4. Explore Storage Options

If your new home isn’t ready or you’re downsizing, Mitchell Moving offers secure, air-conditioned storage solutions. Contact us to learn more about our flexible warehousing.

5. Show Appreciation

Tipping is a great way to thank your movers. In Knoxville, $5–$6 per mover per hour or $25–$50 per person for a half-day move is standard for exceptional service.

Each Knoxville neighborhood has its own character, and Mitchell Moving tailors our services to fit. Here’s a quick guide:

• Downtown/Old City: Urban and historic, with narrow streets and apartments. We use smaller vans for tight spaces.
• West Hills/Farragut: Family-friendly suburbs with larger homes. Our 26-foot trucks handle long driveways and gated communities.
• Fountain City/North Knoxville: Quiet areas with older homes. We navigate steep driveways and limited parking with ease.
• South Knoxville/Colonial Village: Up-and-coming with historic and modern homes. We plan for off-peak hours to avoid Chapman Highway traffic.

Our fleet is equipped for any neighborhood, ensuring efficient and safe moves. Learn more about our local expertise at knoxmover.com.

While a DIY move might seem cost-effective, it can lead to stress and unexpected costs. Here’s how we compare:

• DIY Moving:
  • Pros: Lower upfront cost, full control.
  • Cons: Time-intensive, physically demanding, and risky without proper equipment. Truck rentals and labor can still cost $75–$200 per hour.
  • Best For: Small, local moves with minimal furniture.
• Mitchell Moving:
  • Pros: Saves time, reduces stress, and ensures safety for heavy or valuable items. Our full-service options handle packing, loading, and unloading.
  • Cons: Higher cost, but worth it for efficiency and peace of mind.
  • Best For: Long-distance moves, large households, or specialty items.
