Most Franklin family homes call for 3 movers and a truck at $195 an hour. That size fits 2 to 3 bedroom houses and townhomes, including homes with stairs or a long walk to the curb. For a large estate home, 4 movers and a truck run $240 an hour.
We can pack the whole house or only the rooms you choose, using quality packing materials. Partial packing works well when you want to handle personal items yourself and leave the kitchen, glassware, and art to us.
Antique pieces from an older downtown home get blankets, shrink wrap, and padding before they leave the room. We wrap at the house, so nothing rides in the truck unprotected.
Pianos, safes, and other heavy pieces usually need 4 movers, which we price at $240 an hour. Tell us the item and the path out of the house when you book, and we plan the job around it. See our large item moving page for more.
Leaving Williamson County for another state? Long distance moves from the Nashville area run on flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees, quoted before the truck is loaded.

What Franklin Neighborhoods Mean for Your Move Day
Historic Districts Near Downtown
Franklin has seven local historic districts, including Downtown Franklin, Hincheyville, Lewisburg Avenue, and Adams Street. Hincheyville covers West Main Street, Fair Street, and 6th through 10th Streets, with most homes built in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Older houses like these often have tighter stair turns and doorways, so we measure the large pieces at the quote stage and plan a 3 or 4 mover job when the layout calls for it.
Guard-Gated and Self-Contained Communities
LaurelBrooke is a guard-gated community on close to 600 acres. Westhaven runs as its own town, with a Town Center and schools inside it. For gated entries, put our truck on the guest list for move day so the clock is not running at the gate.
Cool Springs Apartments and Condos
Cool Springs is Franklin’s commercial hub, with complexes such as Viera Cool Springs and IMT Cool Springs. Apartment moves here are often a fit for 2 movers and a truck. Ask your leasing office about loading areas and elevator access before move day.
Franklin Moving Logistics: Festival Weekends and Parkway Routes
Main Street Festival and Pumpkinfest Weekends
The Main Street Festival fills Main Street and the Public Square each April and draws more than 120,000 visitors. In 2026 it ran April 25 and 26. Pumpkinfest closes downtown roads from Friday evening through Saturday night in late October. If you live downtown, pick a different weekend.
Mack Hatcher Parkway and Hillsboro Road
The northwest extension of Mack Hatcher Parkway links Highway 96 West to Hillsboro Road, with access at Del Rio Pike and Old Charlotte Pike. It gives our trucks a way around downtown when we move homes on the west side of Franklin.

Questions Franklin Homeowners Ask Before Moving
1.
Do you move homes in Franklin's historic districts?
Yes, we move homes in Hincheyville, downtown, and Franklin’s other historic districts. We check stairways and doorways at the quote stage and send enough movers for heavy antique pieces.
2.
How much does a local move in Franklin cost?
We charge $155 an hour for 2 movers and a truck, $195 for 3 movers, and $240 for 4 movers, with a 2-hour minimum. After two hours, billing runs in half-hour increments.
3.
Can your truck get into a gated community like LaurelBrooke?
Yes, as long as the gate has our truck on its list for move day. Call the gate or your HOA before the move so the movers drive straight in.
4.
Should I avoid moving during the Main Street Festival?
Yes, if your home is on or near Main Street. The festival fills Main Street and the Public Square, so a weekday or a different weekend keeps the truck close to your door.
5.
Can I hire movers only to load a rental truck?
Yes, labor-only help with 2 movers costs $130 an hour. You supply the truck, and we load or unload it.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
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!
