SANTANA PIANO MOVERS

Santana Piano Movers should be the only movers you consider if you love your piano and/or it's priceless.  I needed someone to move my 1927 Steinway Model M Player Grand Piano (a couple of tons) on short notice.  While their quote was the highest, I shudder to think what would have happened had I gone with someone cheaper.  We'd scheduled a move about four days in advance but the auction house I'd purchased it from said I needed to move the piano earlier.  So Santana made time for me the next morning, which must have been difficult given their busy schedules.
When they arrived at the pickup location, they spent real, quality time inspecting and sizing up the piano (also letting me know where small things could be fixed / improved later - it being an old piano).  I was in good hands from the beginning.  
On the destination, I live in a canyon and the stairs going up to the front door are so steep that they'd violate code if we had to rebuild.  Not to mention there's a narrow original archway leading into the staircase.  Because I'd asked for them to move the piano "today or tomorrow", they were only able to see the piano's route by pictures I emailed instead of sending out their usual inspector.  To see what the Santana team did to get my piano through the arch and up those stairs was a work of art in itself.  Expertly taking off different pieces, considering all of the alternatives, and finally getting the piano down to the right size to fit.  Each adjustment was with the utmost care and knowledge.  And then came the staircase.  It's what I imagine the building of the pyramids was like, with its combination of strength, skill, and knowledge.  To see a couple of tons moving up a narrow staircase (manually without a dolly or even a straight wood platform) and feel at ease that the piano (and my house) were safe and sound made the decision to go with Santana not only the right one but the only possible one.
I can't recommend them highly enough.

Santana Piano Movers were outstanding from start to finish. It was easy to book with them (I've used them before), they called the day before to confirm, then they called 45 minutes before their arrival. They arrived with an able team at hand, who were very kind, and remembered me from the prior visit last year. They handled my 1915 Steinway with great care, and also were very observant in terms of navigating my piano into my home. These guys are A+, and I highly recommend them if you need a piano mover in the greater Los Angeles area.

THEY ARRIVED ON TIME AND WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL. THEY MADE SURE I WAS HAPPY AND WERE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE THE PIANO. I WAS SATISFIED. I WILL HIRE THEM ANY TIME AS LONG AS THEY DO AN OUTSTANDING JOB LIKE THE FIRST TIME.

MOVERS USE 2 PEOPLE, ONE HAS BEEN A MOVER FOR OVER 10 YEARS. THEY USE HEAVY PADDING. THEY COME ON TIME AND HAVE ACCESSORIES ON HAND TO SELL IF YOU NEED THEM.
