"I needed a move on short notice and Dacia was able to accommodate me. I'm disabled and needed packing as well as moving for a huge amount of books and other goods that accumulated over two decades in my prior apartment. Dacia added additional men when the scope of the job became clear. He went out of his way to make sure the move went well. I highly recommend Green Gorilla Movers."

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

While it's not expected, tipping junk haulers is a kind gesture when the team goes above and beyond for piano disposal. Lugging and breaking down a piano requires specialized equipment, maneuvering, and a lot of strength. When your junk haulers take particularly good care of your home during the process, consider tipping between 10% and 20% of the total bill to split among the team or $10 to $20 per hauler.

The level of difficulty for this type of move depends on the size of the safe. However, even a small gun safe can weigh several hundred pounds. Since gun safes are large and bulky, they are typically difficult to move and transport unless you have the right equipment and plenty of professional help.

Hire movers two to three months before your move-out date to give you enough time to compare rates, organize your belongings, and, most importantly, find a crew available for the exact day and time you need. You may find movers only one or two weeks ahead, but some companies require booking up to 90 days in advance. Consider the time of year, too—summer weekends book up fast, so plan ahead.

The average cost to hire movers is between $920 and $2,530 for local moves and $2,700 to $10,000 for long-distance moves. The number of movers you need, the total mileage you’re moving, your moving date, and ease of access to your home all factor into the bottom line. 

For example, if you only need one or two movers, you can expect to pay $25 to $50 an hour. However, if you need four or more movers, that charge increases to $100 to $200 an hour. Moving specialty items, like a piano or large aquarium, will incur additional charges.

To make sure that your moving quote is fair, check current prices for hiring movers in your area. Your starting and final locations can affect the price. You should also make sure you include the cost of any specialty movers in your price estimate. Calculate your moving costs including the estimated expense of moving services and compare the figure to average costs in your area.
