"Baltic movers were excellent. On time, professional and friendly. Did the job perfectly. Moved my upright piano and some other home stuff very well. Would hire them back"
"The team (Mike is the only name I remember) Was extremely prompt, polite, courteous and professional. Both teamworkers were very outgoing and pleasant taking care of our items as though they were there own. Each item of furniture was wrapped carefully in saran wrap to protect from dust, dirt, and damage. They were very quick to finish the job, delivering and setting up everything as asked. I would definitely use this company again and would recommend them to anybody needing a proficient moving team. "
"Good guys, had a little trouble following instructions times. I was doing a long distance move and had purchased three does an extra moving blankets. Instead of opening them and using them, we ran out of blankets towards the end and I didn’t know they had just pack the boxes in the truck. They also waited to do my baby grand electric piano until the end, and had one moving blanket set aside for it. There was damage."
"Excellent! We used Ready2Move after I purchased a gently used piano from Naples to Fort Myers. They arrived on time, used care & were organized & experienced."
"The 3-person team to move our 3-bedroom house was on time and exceptionally efficient. I've had a horrible experience with a previous moving company (our first time using a moving company) making me very hesitant about the professionalism in the industry but this company has changed my views. I highly recommend Teleport Moving and Storage and will use them again if needed."
"Angel Movers were excellent from the first phone call through complete move. Rick was quite flexible in working with my schedule for pickup and delivery. The moving team (Moses, John, and Ferris) were very professional and pleasant to work with. They did a great job handling all out bulking furniture including a piano. Great company. Great team. Excellent work!"
"Without hesitation, I highly recommend Woody & Sons Moving. Definitely the BEST MOVERS we've ever used! The guys showed up on time and worked very hard all day. Amazingly, they took the stress out of the move with their teamwork, pleasant smiles, and reassuring demeanor. They made the whole day a breeze!"
"The company was very responsive, pickup/delivery was late but they kept you updated on the status of your movers, which was awesome. The move process went very smooth, Kevin and Quaron were complete professionals,respectful, and courteous. They treated our belongings as if they were their own. They were knowledgeable and maneuvered huge furniture in confine places with ease, and WITHOUT a scratch. Moving can be very stressful , however thanks to JoChas Moving (the entire team) I was STRESS-FREE. I will definitely recommend JoChas Moving to friends and family. I Highly recommend them."

"All went well except the truck broke down AFTER it was loaded. All items had to be loaded onto another truck. But the two movers were very professional and kept their attitude positive even though they had to sit and wait for new truck to arrive and then load new truck. These men were excellent employees in their work ethics and cheerful attitude. Worked extra hard to keep our move at the 3 hours."
Choosing a reliable moving company is critical because you’re entrusting all of your belongings to the professional movers, so you’ll want to make sure you consider the following:
The experience of the movers and the number of years in the industry
The add-on services provided, like packing and storage
The warranty or insurance coverage to protect your belongings
We also recommend confirming that the movers are properly licensed using Angi’s state licensing tool. You can check for certification from organizations like the American Moving and Storage Association.
Hiring professional movers is usually worth the investment. These moving pros have the expertise and experience to get the job done quickly and safely, saving you time and potentially avoiding damage to your belongings. Professionals are especially a good idea if you’re moving long distances or large, bulky items, like furniture, pianos, or vehicles. Pros will also know when you need moving permits based on where you live and whether or not the moving truck will block traffic.
Tipping movers is not mandatory, and most professional companies do not expect it. However, it is a common way to show appreciation for their hard work and the care they take with your belongings and home. A standard tip is between 10% and 20% of your total bill, split among the crew, or about $10 per mover per hour, tipped individually. It's an especially good idea to tip if the movers work in difficult weather, handle specialty items like pianos or pool tables, provide extra packing services, or go above and beyond your expectations.
Depending on the type of expense, it is possible to deduct moving costs on your taxes. For example, you can deduct for packing, crating, insurance, in-transit storage, and using a trailer. However, you cannot deduct expenses such as moving furniture, security deposits, and home buying and selling expenses.
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.
