Not many neighborhoods in Memphis can say Elvis Presley learned to strum a guitar in their courtyard. Lauderdale Courts can. This downtown community carries decades of Memphis history in its red brick buildings and tree-lined walkways. If you’re moving into or out of this storied part of the city, you deserve an experienced moving company that respects both your belongings and your timeline. That’s where we come in.
Lauderdale Courts sits right in the heart of downtown, walking distance from Beale Street and Sun Studios. Big League Movers has been handling relocations in this area for more than a decade and a half, and we know the ins and outs of moving in older, historic properties. The buildings here date back to the late 1930s, which means character and charm but also unique challenges like narrow stairwells, tight corners, and limited parking for moving trucks. Our crews come prepared for all of it.
We’re not some faceless national chain. We started right here in Memphis, built our reputation one move at a time, and still operate with the same customer-first mindset we had on day one. Every mover on our team goes through background checks and hands-on training before working a job. We show up on time, communicate clearly throughout the day, and wrap up without leaving a mess behind. That consistency is why we’ve earned over 3,400 five-star reviews and partnerships with more than 5,000 real estate professionals across the region.
Whether you need someone to pack your entire apartment or just load the truck and go, we tailor each move to what you actually need. We offer packing services, furniture disassembly and reassembly, and storage options for short or long-term use. Moving across town? Leaving Tennessee? It doesn’t matter. We handle local and long-distance moves with the same attention to detail.
Our quotes are straightforward. The number we give you is the number you pay. No hidden fees tacked on at the end. No last-minute upcharges. We’ve never canceled a move in 16 years, and we don’t plan to start now. You focus on settling into your new place. We’ll handle the logistics, the heavy lifting, and the careful handling of everything you own.
Lauderdale Courts is a historic downtown Memphis neighborhood built in 1938 as one of the nation’s first public housing projects. Now known as Uptown Square, it blends Georgian Revival architecture with modern living. The area gained fame as Elvis Presley’s teenage home from 1949 to 1953, and today it sits near Beale Street, Sun Studios, and the Mississippi River waterfront.
