From a studio in a garden complex to a corner unit in a downtown tower, Moving Hearts moves apartments of every size. We coordinate the elevator and work through the stairs and tight turns.
Moving Hearts is an apartment moving company for studios, one-bedrooms, larger units, and luxury high-rise homes. Our apartment movers coordinate elevator time, work through tight spaces, and wrap every piece before it leaves your unit. We are a locally and veteran owned moving company run by Erion Hogan and Cameron Woodward, two friends who saw too much careless damage in the moving business. Our mission is to put the care back into moving.
High-Rise and Luxury Building Moves
High-rise and luxury apartment buildings tend to run moves on a schedule.
Many high-rise buildings ask residents to reserve the service elevator for a set time slot before move day. Some also set move-in windows, pad the elevator or ask movers to bring padding, and route moves through a loading dock or garage. Rules change from building to building, so check with your leasing office early.
Here is how our movers handle a high-rise move:
Coordinating elevator timing with your move date
Bringing blankets, padding, and plastic wrap to protect furniture in elevators and halls
Using dollies to move loads from the dock or garage to your door
Wrapping furniture in blankets, shrink wrap, and padding before it leaves the unit
Share your building’s rules with us when you book. We will plan the job around your elevator slot.
Apartment Moves Across Middle Tennessee
Plenty of apartment moves start in one town and end in another. We move apartments across 19 Middle Tennessee cities, including these communities:
Most apartment moves we handle cost $155 per hour for 2 movers and a truck, which fits most 1-bedroom apartments. Larger apartments, or units with stairs or long walks to the truck, usually call for 3 movers at $195 per hour.

Every move has a 2-hour minimum, and time after that is billed in half-hour increments. The clock starts when the truck parks at your building and stops when the move is done and the equipment is stowed in the truck. An additional mover is $60 per hour. Every truck package comes with dollies, moving blankets, straps, plastic wrap, and protection materials.
Stairs, Long Hallways, and Tight Turns
Walk-up apartments bring their own challenges. A third-floor unit with no elevator means every box and every couch goes down the stairs by hand. A large complex may mean a long walk from the door to the parking lot. These details add time, so they shape your quote.
Help us plan by telling us:
Your floor number at both addresses and whether each has an elevator
How far the truck can park from your door
Any oversized furniture, like a sectional or a king bed frame
Whether you need furniture taken apart and put back together
Furniture assembly is an optional add-on, and so are packing and storage solutions. If you only need a few boxes packed, ask about partial packing services.
Apartment Moving FAQs
1.
Do You Reserve the Elevator in My High-Rise?
Your building controls its own elevator reservations, and we coordinate our arrival and timing with the slot you book. Send us your building’s move rules early so we can plan around them.
2.
How Much Does It Cost to Move a 1-Bedroom Apartment?
A 1-bedroom apartment move usually takes 2 movers and a truck at $155 per hour, with a 2-hour minimum. Stairs, long walks, or extra items can add time.
3.
Does the clock run while movers wait for the elevator?
The clock starts when the truck parks at your building and runs until the move is done and the equipment is stowed. Booking an elevator slot that matches your move time keeps the wait short.
4.
Can your movers fit my couch through a narrow apartment door?
Our movers handle tight spaces as a regular part of apartment moves. Tell us about large pieces when you book, and add furniture assembly if a piece needs to come apart.
5.
Will you move me out of a luxury apartment building with strict rules?
Yes, we move residents in luxury buildings and high-rises. Share the building’s move-in or move-out rules with us before move day.

Hogan and Malakai and with the Nashville location of Moving Hearts did and an incredible job with and a very challenging move, and got it on perfect time with the utmost professionalism.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
Moving Hearts saved my move. From the moment they started, they went above and beyond — accommodating everything I needed without a single complaint. What really stood out was their attitude: cool, calm, and completely professional, but also focused and friendly at the same time. In a process that’s normally so stressful, they made everything feel streamlined and easy.
A special shout-out to Mr. Hogan, who took such great care throughout the entire move. They handled my belongings with care and made sure every detail was taken care of, turning what could have been a chaotic experience into a smooth one from start to finish. I am absolutely looking forward to re-hiring Moving Hearts when I relocate to New York or Seattle.
If I could give this team 10 stars, I would. Thank you so much!
