Moovers & Shakers is everything you loved about being a kid in one 16-oz cup of tasty, tasty treats. On the road. In Nashville. NEAT-O!
Moovers & Shakers, what's that?
A mobile milkshake truck. A soda parlor on wheels. Everything you loved about being a kid in one 16-oz cup of tasty, tasty treats. We believe in providing high-quality, super-delicious milkshakes and soda parlor drinks-- or as we like to call them, Moovers and Shakers. We believe customers are our neighbors and friends first-- and hey, that maybe all you hepcats have some wild ideas to share too. We believe in spontaneous water balloon fights, bike races, and dance-offs. We believe in movin' and shakin' and doin' the twist, ya dig?
Moovers and Shakers will serve the Nashville community starting May 2011. We have a basic menu of two milkshakes and two ice cream floats...
The Thunderbird: Vanilla Moover
The Impala: Chocolate Moover
The Cadillac: Coke Shaker
The Corvette: Root Beer Shaker
...plus some neat-o specialty drinks for a weekly themed menu.
PLUS, we want to infuse your day with a little fun with random acts of happiness called Scoops. Maybe we'll pass out water balloons with each purchase. Maybe Hayden will freestyle every order he takes. Maybe we'll call an impromptu dance-off. (Okay, that one's definitely happening!)
Oh man, how incredible! How can I help you achieve this greatness so that I can partake in milkshakes, ice cream floats, and overall fun?
Right? Thanks!
First of all, thank you so much to everyone who has shown their support so far. It's been unbelievable and we can't even begin to put our appreciation into words. A lot of you have asked how you can help and, well, the thing we need most right now is money. See, we're trying to save money by buying an already converted ice cream truck, but even then, you still need all the equipment, licenses, health permits... it's a pretty sizable chuck o' change. So we could really, really use your help so that we could buy the truck. If you donate money, here's what it'll go towards:
- Buying a converted ice cream truck
- Repairs, maintenance, and paint
- Getting our health permits so we can operate
We're trying to get everything up and running by May, so it's crunch time, people! LET'S GET THIS TRUCK ON THE ROAD!!
Alright, I'm super excited and ready to share this with all of my friends and family! What else can I do?!

The ULTIMATE Moovers and Shakers seal of approval... YOU WILL GET YOUR NAME OR LOGO ON THE SIDE OF OUR TRUCK. You'll have to provide your own bumper sticker or decal, but look... It really doesn't get any cooler than seeing your name pass by on the side of a mobile soda parlor driving through the streets of Nashville!
