Atlanta to Memphis
Car Service
Memphis is approximately 390 miles from Atlanta via I-20 West through Birmingham and I-22 West through northern Alabama and Mississippi — about a 6-hour drive.

The Route
Atlanta to Memphis: The Drive
Highway Overview
The route starts west on I-20 from Atlanta through Villa Rica, Anniston, and Birmingham — about 150 miles. At Birmingham, the route continues northwest on I-22 (US-78) through Jasper, Hamilton, and into Mississippi through Belmont and Iuka before reaching Tupelo. From Tupelo, US-78/I-22 continues west to the Memphis metro, entering via I-269 South or I-240 depending on the destination.
I-22 through Alabama and Mississippi is a modern, well-maintained divided highway with lighter traffic than the Atlanta-Nashville corridor. The Memphis approach can be congested during weekday rush hours; for downtown Memphis arrivals, your chauffeur will route via I-240 to minimize delays.
