How far in advance should I book my move?

Do you handle long-distance or out-of-state moves?
Yes — we provide long-distance moves from Nashville to anywhere in Tennessee or across the U.S. Share your to/from locations and we’ll give you a customized quote and timeline. See what Nashville families should know about out-of-state moves.
Can I get help loading or unloading my own truck or POD?
Yes. We offer labor-only loading/unloading, perfect for U-Haul, PODS, storage units, or when you already have transportation but need professional movers.
How do I get a quote or schedule a move?
You can call, text, or fill out our online quote form anytime. Tell us your home size, locations, date, and any special items, and we’ll provide a fast, accurate estimate and confirm your move on the schedule.
Why do people choose Daniels Moving and Logistics over other Nashville moving companies?
Many of our customers choose us because we combine professional packing, careful furniture protection, clear communication, and honest pricing. We’re a locally owned Nashville moving company that handles everything from apartment moves and full-house moves to office relocations and storage moves across Middle Tennessee. Our goal is to make your move feel organized, efficient, and stress-free from the first call to the final walkthrough. See our testimonials.
What makes a “full-service” move with Daniels Moving and Logistics different?
A full-service move means we can handle almost everything for you: packing, labeling, wrapping furniture, disassembling beds and tables, loading the truck, transporting, unloading, and reassembling key items in your new place. Instead of just providing muscle, we provide a complete moving plan so your home or office is set up faster and with less hassle. See our full list of services.
How do you protect my furniture and home during the move?
We use professional moving blankets, shrink wrap, floor protection, and proper lifting techniques to keep both your items and your property safe. Before loading, we pad and wrap furniture, protect doorways and railings when needed, and secure everything tightly in the truck. This reduces the risk of scratches, dents, and damage during transit, especially on stairs, tight hallways, and long carries. See our gallery for examples.
Can you help with both local moves inside Nashville and moves to other states?
Yes. We regularly help clients move within Nashville, between Middle Tennessee cities (like Brentwood, Franklin, Murfreesboro, Hendersonville, and Clarksville), and to or from other states. Local moves are usually billed hourly, while longer-distance and out-of-state moves are priced based on distance, size of the load, and any special services like packing or assembly. See more about local moving.
Is Daniels Moving and Logistics a good fit for small moves, or only larger home moves?
We’re a good fit for both. Some customers hire us for full 3–5 bedroom homes, while others need help with one-bedroom apartments, single rooms, or a few heavy pieces going to storage. If you need careful, professional movers—whether your job is big or small—we can scale the crew size and time to fit your situation. See how affordable movers in Nashville can make small moves easier.
How does Daniels Moving and Logistics support customers who need last-minute or same-week movers?
When our schedule allows, we offer flexible, short-notice moving options for customers who’ve had had plans change, closings move up, or other movers cancel on them. If you need same-week or last-minute moving help in the Nashville area, contact us with your details and we’ll let you know what openings we have and how we can best help. See our contact page.
How much do movers cost in Nashville?
Moving rates in Nashville vary depending on the size of the home, distance, number of movers needed, and services requested, but most local moves range from a few hundred dollars for small jobs to several thousand for larger homes that require packing, labor, and additional support. The most accurate way to determine cost is to request a quote that reflects your specific home, contents, and service needs.
How much does it cost to pack and move a 2000 sq ft house?
The cost to pack and move a home of this size can range widely because it depends on how much furniture and personal property needs to be handled, the number of movers required, the time involved, and whether you ask the movers to fully pack your home, supply materials, and handle tasks like disassembly. Most homes of this size fall into a mid range cost for local moves, but the total can be higher if you add packing labor, materials, or have specialty items that require extra care.
Is it cheaper to hire a moving company or use pods?
Pods can be cheaper in some situations because you handle all packing, loading, and unloading yourself, but hiring a moving company can be more cost effective when you consider labor, time saved, professional packing, and reduced risk of damage, especially if you have a full home of belongings, heavy items, or want a hands off process. The best value depends on how much work you are willing to do yourself.
What items will a moving company not move?
Most moving companies will not transport hazardous materials like fuel or chemicals, items that can spoil, or things that require special licensing or safety handling, and they may also decline items that are extremely large or difficult to move without specialized equipment. It is best to ask the mover to confirm any restrictions before scheduling your move to avoid surprises on moving day.
Do moving companies pack for you?
Yes, many moving companies offer full packing services, and Daniels Moving lists packing and wrapping as one of their service options, which typically means they can pack your home, wrap and protect furniture, and prepare items for transport as part of your move, though the final cost depends on how much packing you need and whether you want them to provide all the materials.
Do moving companies charge for travel time?
Many movers charge for the time it takes to travel between your starting location and your destination, and some also include travel time from their facilities to your home as part of the total service cost, so it is smart to ask for a written estimate that explains how their travel fees are calculated.
Do moving companies provide boxes?
Companies that offer packing services often provide boxes, protective materials, and wrapping supplies as part of their service, but some charge separately for those materials, which makes it important to discuss whether your quote includes boxes or if you need to supply your own.
Do moving companies disassemble furniture?
Most moving companies can disassemble and reassemble beds, tables, and other larger pieces when needed, and Daniels Moving specifically shows assembly and disassembly among their offered services, so they can typically handle the breakdown and setup of furniture as part of your move.
Do moving companies work on weekends?
Many moving companies are flexible with scheduling and can work on weekends, especially in busy seasons when weekday availability is limited, though appointment times and rates may depend on how far in advance you schedule and how full their calendar is at the time of your move.
