"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."
Yes, moving a piano often causes it to become out of tune, even if you're not moving the piano very far. One reason is that any temperature and humidity changes can affect a piano's tuning. Additionally, the bumps and jolts from a moving truck usually push a piano out of tune.
However, don't jump right to tuning it once the piano gets to your new home. Instead, it's best to wait at least two weeks for the instrument to acclimate to its new environment. After a couple weeks, you'll get an idea of what the piano will really sound like in its new home, at which point you can call a piano technician to get it properly tuned.
It’s rare to rent moving straps alone. Typically, you buy them outright. However, if you rent moving equipment, like loading tools or a furniture dolly, from a local or big-box business, they may come with moving straps for you to use.
Moving straps like forearm or shoulder straps can usually support up to 800 pounds, sometimes more with specialized straps. However, that doesn’t mean that one person can always lift that much weight, just that the straps are rated for that amount. For example, some straps require two people working together to balance the weight of the heavy item.
It can be tempting to want to help your movers as they pack or transport your belongings, but in general, most movers prefer their customers to stay out of the way. Rest assured that your movers are confident in their skills and the process will likely go faster without your help. If you see something concerning, let your movers know right away so they can adjust or remedy the issue.
It is certainly possible to move a piano without hiring movers, but it’s not recommended. Not only will you need at least four people to lift and maneuver the piano, but getting it around tight corners and down flights of stairs might not be possible without the help of movers. Plus, pianos are exceptionally heavy and bulky, which means you and any helping hands are at risk of injury, as well as an increased risk of damaging your piano. Ultimately, it’s always worth it to call in a professional piano mover.
