Our furniture movers handle the pieces that are too heavy or too awkward to move yourself. That includes safes, pianos, sectionals, dressers, and other bulky furniture. We can haul them to a new address with our truck, or we can move them inside your home with labor-only help. Either way, we wrap and protect each piece before it moves. Moving Hearts is a locally and veteran owned moving company built on care, precision, and pride in every job.
Two Ways to Book Furniture Movers
Your choice depends on one question: does the item leave the house?
Moving Large Items to a New Address
When a heavy piece goes to a new home, a storage unit, or across town, book a truck package. Big items such as pianos and safes go on 4 movers and a truck at $240 per hour. Every truck package includes a fully equipped truck, dollies, moving blankets, straps, plastic wrap, and protection materials.
Labor-Only Help for Rearranging Furniture
When the furniture stays in the house, book 2 movers with no truck at $130 per hour. This option covers rearranging furniture, moving pieces between rooms or floors, and loading or unloading a rental truck you rented yourself.

Heavy Items We Move and How We Protect Them
We move the pieces most people cannot lift alone:
Gun safes and home safes
Pianos
Sectional sofas and sleeper sofas
Armoires, dressers, and china cabinets
Dining tables and solid wood bed frames
Each piece gets wrapped in moving blankets, padding, and plastic wrap before it moves. We roll heavy items on dollies and strap them inside the truck. If a piece came apart to get into your home, add furniture assembly to your move and our movers will put it back together at the new address. For pianos in particular, see our piano moving page. For a whole home where every piece gets extra care, see white glove moving.
Big Furniture in Older Bungalows
Older Nashville neighborhoods hold a lot of heavy furniture in older floor plans. Sylvan Park in West Nashville was developed as a planned subdivision at the turn of the 20th century, and most of its homes are bungalow-style houses built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, according to the Nashville Public Library. Many of those houses have been altered since they were built, so no two layouts are the same. Before you book, measure the largest piece and the doorways it has to pass through. Tell us about steps, stairs, and tight turns. Those details tell us how many movers to send and how long to plan for.
Cities We Serve for Furniture Moves
We move large items from Nashville to the cities around it. For jobs inside the city, see movers in Nashville. We also cover:
Can I hire movers just to rearrange furniture in my house?
Yes, our labor-only option sends 2 movers with no truck for $130 per hour to rearrange furniture inside your home. The 2-hour minimum applies. Add another mover for $60 per hour if a piece needs more hands.
2.
How much do furniture movers charge for a heavy item?
Our furniture movers charge $240 per hour for big items such as pianos and safes, which covers 4 movers and a truck. There is a 2-hour minimum, then half-hour billing. Long walks and stairs add time.
3.
Can you move a gun safe?
Yes, we move safes on our 4 movers and truck package at $240 per hour. Tell us the safe’s location in the house and any steps on the way out. That helps us plan the move.
4.
Do furniture movers bring a truck?
Our truck packages include a fully equipped truck, and our labor-only option does not. Choose labor only when the furniture stays in the house or you rented your own truck. Choose a truck package when the piece goes to a new address.
5.
Will you put my furniture back together after the move?
Yes, furniture assembly is an add-on you can choose for your move. List the pieces that need it when you request a quote. We include it in your custom quote.
6.
What should I set aside before full packing?
Set aside medications, documents, chargers, a change of clothes, and anything else you’ll need during the move or on your first night.

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.
We moved local as we are downsizing. The crew was fantastic on such a hot day and were completed even quicker than requested. Communication was 5 star. We will definitely be using them again for our forever home.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
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!
