Are you a moving company?
Yes — Midnight Movers is a fully licensed and insured Murfreesboro, TN moving company running our own trucks and uniformed crew, with a Tennessee Public Utility Commission household-goods permit and US DOT and MC authority.
What does a local move run per hour?
A 2-mover crew with truck is a flat $139/hr, and a 3-mover crew is $179/hr, both with a 1-hour minimum. Blankets, dollies, and shrink-wrap are included, and we write the number down before we load anything.
Can I book an evening or weekend slot without paying extra?
Yes — that's the reason Midnight Movers exists. Evening and weekend appointments run at the exact same rate as a weekday afternoon, no overtime surcharge tacked on.
How do you handle MTSU move-in and move-out weekends?
Dallas Prentiss staffs specifically for the May and August crunch, when most of MTSU's off-campus complexes turn over inside the same 72-hour window. Book early — those weekends fill fastest.
What about narrow alleys and tight stairwells downtown?
Wyatt Sledge's crew handles the historic blocks around the courthouse square regularly. We plan the truck's staging spot and stairwell approach ahead of move day so nothing gets stuck mid-turn.
Do you move people out of state?
Yes. Our US DOT and MC authority covers interstate jobs, and the crew that loads your truck in Murfreesboro is the same crew that unloads it at your new front door — nothing gets handed off along the way.
What happens if there's a tornado watch on my move date?
Middle Tennessee gets active spring storm weeks, and we'd rather reschedule a few hours than move a crew through a warning. We'll call ahead and work out a new window around the watch.
What's covered if something gets damaged?
Baseline coverage runs $0.60 per pound under released-value protection, and you can step up to full-value coverage for up to $1,000,000 per shipment if you want the extra cushion.
Will the same crew that loads my truck also unload it?
On local moves, yes. The same people who load you out in the morning are the ones setting up at your new address — we don't switch crews partway through.
Do you offer a full-pack option?
Yes. Our full-pack crew comes a day ahead and wraps the entire house — dishes, mirrors, closets included — so move day is just loading and driving.
