Does Birds Eye work outside Nashville?
Yes. Birds Eye is a Tennessee-licensed PI agency based in Nashville that accepts cases in all 95 counties. Surveillance, locates, interviews, records research and process service are handled by the same team statewide, with travel and scheduling planned into the written scope before work begins.
How Statewide Coverage Works From a Nashville Base
Tennessee is long and narrow, roughly a day's drive from the Mississippi River to the Virginia line. A PI agency that works the whole state has to plan for that distance. Birds Eye schedules field assignments around travel time, court calendars and the daily rhythm of the place where the subject lives or works, so hours are spent observing and verifying rather than driving.
For Middle Tennessee, Nashville and the surrounding counties are covered daily. West and East Tennessee assignments are planned in advance with the travel built into the written scope, and multi-county cases are coordinated so one team follows the matter from start to finish.
West, Middle and East Tennessee Each Work Differently
West Tennessee combines the Memphis metro with long stretches of farmland and small county seats, so surveillance there often alternates between dense traffic and open roads where a parked car stands out. Middle Tennessee is dominated by the fast-growing Nashville suburbs and the I-24, I-40 and I-65 corridors. East Tennessee brings mountains, lakes and tourist traffic, especially around Knoxville, Chattanooga, Sevier County and the Tri-Cities.
Those differences change how a case is planned: where to wait, how many PIs are needed, and when observation is most likely to be productive. The city pages linked below explain what that looks like in each community.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an extra charge for cases outside Nashville?
Travel time and mileage are part of the written scope for any assignment, so a case in a distant county may cost more than the same work in Davidson County. You see those costs before anything starts. Combining tasks in one trip, such as a locate and a service attempt, often keeps the total down.
How quickly can a PI start in my county?
It depends on the county, the type of work and the information you already have. Middle Tennessee assignments can often be scheduled quickly. East and West Tennessee cases are planned with travel in mind. If you have a court deadline, mention it on the first call so the schedule is built around it.
Do you serve papers in every Tennessee county?
Yes. Birds Eye handles process service across all 95 counties. Each attempt is documented with the date, time and location, and a return of service is prepared for filing. Check with the court clerk or your attorney about any local requirements for who may serve papers in your court.
What if the person I am looking for lives in another state?
Records research and locating can often reach beyond Tennessee. Field work and service outside the state must follow the other state's rules, which may require coordination with a PI licensed there. Birds Eye explains those steps and costs up front.
Why is my county not listed as a city page?
City pages exist for communities where Birds Eye works most often, but coverage is the same in every county. Use the county finder to see the nearest city page and the right process serving page for your county.
Can one PI agency handle a case that spans several counties?
Yes. Multi-county cases are common, such as a subject who lives in one county, works in another and spends weekends in a third. One team follows the matter across county lines so nothing is lost in a handoff between separate local providers.
