"The move couldn't have gone better. Communication was excellent, and the timing of the move went exactly as expected. The gentlemen who performed the move were friendly, professional, and very careful. Their experience was very evident. I would definitely hire Affordable Piano Movers again, should the need to move my piano comes up. A+++++"

"I called the company just the day before I was moving and they were able to accommodate me! The movers are incredibly friendly and professional. Moving is always so stressful and their demeanor put me at ease immediately. It was clear from the first minutes that my belongings were in good hands. Thank you, Royal Moving!"

"When they moved us out of our old home, they were thorough, friendly, and hard-working. They carefully loaded our things and were careful. The trouble with our move into our new home began the day before. They sent us a text message asking if they could start at 9 a.m. rather than noon. We were scheduled to have a final walk-through with our builder that morning and couldn't swing that big of a time change. The day of the move-in, we arrived at the storage unit as quickly as we could. They loaded the truck and were efficient. They laid down moving blankets on all of my floors so they wouldn't damage them. That was great, but they ruined an armchair because they decided to go through our sliding glass door rather than down the stairs. They wanted to waste time trying to fix it. (No offense, but I am not going to pay by the hour for you to fix something that you damaged.) They also put a large dent in the top of my practically new clothing washer. When we pointed it out, they said, "That wasn't there before?" Nope. It wasn't. They tried to fix it, which didn't work, and then only gave us a $40 discount off our bill. They were punctual, friendly and professional, but I'm not sure that we would hire them again."

"I've moved around the country a number of times, and I have to say, these were the best movers I've encountered! I didn't read Angieslist for those past moves, and that was clearly my mistake. These guys showed up on time and delivered on budget. And then they did more. I had already disassembled some items and packed them up before they arrived. Fast forward to hours later when they delivered the items, they actually assembled the items for me! (I also had a grand piano, and Precision brought in four movers to get the done job right and safely. Other movers said they could do it with three people.)"

"Last month we moved our 3 year old apartment to our newly build home. One of the main difficulty was moving our $1500 kitchen reno safely. Some high cost items there. My office staff said about CalState moving company when I needed a professional service. Their moving team in morning with their truck and we talked about a fair service fee. We both satisfied with it and they start to pack everything to their truck.moving process was very professional and all items handled with care. With their good work, we got moved all our items with zero damage .I like to use their service again and very happy to talked about them here."

I was extremely pleased with the service.  The reason I chose this mover was because they specified that they would do small jobs.  They have a 4 hour minimum, but said that would probably be able to do the initial move in two hours and the second part of the move in the remaining two hours, and charge me the $200 for 4 hours.  However, the second half of the move took slightly longer, due to the need to apply felt pads to all my furniture and more carefully place it on the new hardwood floor.  These movers took amazing care, setting up a "staging area" at the top of the stairs where thick moving pads were put on the floor. Each piece of furniture was placed there and the felt pads were put on before the furniture was moved into place.  I had purchased felt pads in advance, but when we ran out, they had some in their truck and provided them free of charge.  So the additional $50 charge was for the extra hour it took to do this very careful move, and well worth it.  There was no damage at all to the new floor.

The movers were very professional and the owner Mike is very eager to please his customers.  He called to follow-up with me and see if I was completely satisfied.  There were two small issues.  I have three floor and it is extremely difficult to move large furniture up and down the three flights of stairs, so slight problems always occur.  In this case, the corner of my couch was dirtied in the move, however, Mike said I should call a professional upholstery cleaner and he would pay for any costs.  Turned out I was able to clean it myself, so all was well.  We also had some confusion over the time of arrival on the final moving day, but when they arrived, they did a superb job.

I would definitely use this moving company again.

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

Moving a washer and dryer can be difficult due to the appliances’ weight and size. If you need to move these appliances up or down stairs, then it will be more challenging. It also depends on the type of dryer you have, as a gas dryer is more complicated to disconnect than an electric dryer. The difficulty of the task also depends on whether you’re easily wheeling the washer and dryer up a moving truck’s loading ramp or lifting them yourself.

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.

Most moving companies don’t charge by weight or volume unless you’re freight shipping items. The cost of hiring movers typically depends on the number of movers and time spent on the task.

Moving companies offer a variety of service packages to suit different needs and budgets during the moving process. They typically provide loading, unloading, and transportation services, using specialized equipment to handle heavy and bulky items. Services can also include packing assistance, where professional packers securely pack belongings to ensure their safety during transportation. Some moving companies also offer temporary storage options, as well as unpacking services upon arrival.

The average cost to hire professional movers is approximately $1,700, but the total price can range from as low as $920 to over $12,000 depending on the move's complexity. For local moves, typically under 100 miles, costs generally fall between $920 and $2,530. Long-distance moves are more expensive, with prices ranging from $2,700 to $10,000 or more.

Several key factors influence the final cost:

  • Distance and Home Size: The mileage of the move and the size of your home.

  • Number of Movers: Hourly rates can range from $25 to $50 for one or two movers, increasing to $100 to $200 for a team of four or more.

  • Services: Additional services like packing, unpacking, and storage will add to the cost.

  • Specialty Items: Moving large or delicate items such as pianos, vehicles, or large aquariums incurs extra charges.

  • Timing and Access: The time of year, your specific moving date, and the ease of access to your home can affect rates.

Don’t forget to account for other potential costs like moving supplies and tipping your movers.
