Cannonburgh Moving & Storage wishes everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We are grateful for our customers and the opportunity to serve the people of Tennessee, from Memphis to Knoxville and Chattanooga, and from Nashville and Murfreesboro to Franklin and Columbia, to the surrounding south east region with the professional moving services we have developed over several decades and three generations of our family.

Cannonburgh Moving and Storage is also honored to assist Community Care of Rutherford County in Murfreesbro, TN in their efforts in support of Toys For Tots again this year. Community Care of Rutherford County holds an activity every year where its residents and staff participate in an effort in support of the Toys For Tots toy drive. It is a great opportunity for the residents to be involved in the community and to feel that they are helping others in need. There are few better ways to feel vital. The CCRC crew are wonderful, says Cannonburgh Moving & Storage owner Hanson Duke.

Duke believes that assisting these folks in their efforts to give toys to disadvantaged children at Christmas time is a double stroke of good will during this time of giving. Sparing the truck, the gas, the man power and the time are a worthwhile investment in the local community. It is a small gesture that makes a difference for so many people at once. Receiving a letter of thanks from the CCRC is a definite feel good thing, and we want to share it here.

Cannonburgh Moving & Storage,

Community Care of Rutherford County would like to thank you for your dedication, support, and cooperation with our efforts to support the Toys for Tots program. For the last 4 years Cannonburgh Moving & Storage has supplied a truck and a driver to assist with loading and delivering toys purchased by our residents for Toys for Tots. We greatly appreciate your assistance in this endeavor; without your commitment these efforts would be difficult to achieve.

Sincerely, Residents and Staff of Community Care of Rutherford County

It’s football time in Middle Tennessee, and that means it’s time to root for the royal blue. Cannonburgh Moving & Storage will be co-sponsoring a tailgate networking event with the Better Business Bureau at the MTSU home opener versus Georgia Tech on September 10th, 2011.

The tailgate party itself is a networking event for the benefit of accredited BBB members of Bedford, Cannon, Coffee, Rutherford and Warren counties. It is an annual event and Cannonburgh Moving and Storage is proud to help sponsor it this year. Cannonburgh Moving & Storage has been an accredited member since September of 2000 and keeps an A+ rating. We are very happy to have been approached by the Better business Bureau about this opportunity.

Go Blue Raiders, Go!

Cannonburgh Moving & Storage of Murfreesboro, TN operates under the notion that companies should keep their environmental impact low. Call it green thinking if you will, but it just makes good sense. At the end of a long day of moving clients, their lives and their businesses from one place to another, the folks who work for Cannonburgh Moving & Storage still live in the same community they work in.

For a moving and storage company, opportunities for recycling are a more common than you might think. Of course a moving company is necessarily going to operate large trucks which generate a lot of used oil. In 2011 Cannonburgh Moving & Storage is on pace to recycle 150 gallons of used motor oil.

Another such opportunity comes in the form of used moving boxes, packing paper and other papers. This year, Cannonburgh Moving & Storage is recycling 20 tons of paper and cardboard and 2,500 lbs of plastics. This recycling is all handled through the MTSU Recycling Program. Beyond the positive effects that this recycling has on our environment, the funds generated through the MTSU program supports the program and generates revenue for scholarships. In addition, some of the boxes that Cannonburgh Moving & Storage takes in are in good shape and are given away for reuse.

Metals are another valuable commodity that Cannonburgh Moving & Storage recycles through Mid-Tenn Metal Exchange. This year, due to Cannonburgh’s recycling efforts, 8000 lbs of various aluminum, steel, copper, lead and batteries will not find their way into land fills.

Cannonburgh Moving and Storage is proud to serve the moving and storage needs of Tennesseans, and is also proud to do it’s part to help keep Tennessee green.
