They were careful with all of our belongings and everything was transported in perfect condition. They worked hard for 11 straight hours in the bitter cold. They are champs!
Liza Naguib, Google
Extremely professional and they treat your belongings with the utmost care like it’s their own. Very skilled at ensuring that your valuables are well taken care of and packed properly to eliminate any risk of damage.
Great Moving company! We have used them several times and they were always professional, courteous and experienced! They do a great job and are nice guys!
Negative Music City Movers Reviews
Several items I labeled as fragile or glass were placed at the bottom of boxes. Also, items I want in a certain unit are in the other! None of my instructions were followed.
Brooke Seifert, Google
More expensive than any other local movers. This move was the shortest distance I’ve ever moved and the least amount of items, yet it took six hours.
Abigail Dowlen, Google
Paid 250 to move a couch and chair 10 minutes away. They literally left the couch outside in the rain and just left.
Neutral Music City Movers Reviews
They are extremely careful with your property and wrap every item. The move took 4.5 hours when it should have taken about half that time. They also charge for gas ($75) and moving supplies ($30).
