"A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! I'm 62 years old and have moved several times in my life, and it's never been a good experience --until now! Andres and his team are great. He actually repaired some of my furniture that had previously broken --and didn't charge me any extra for it. Stop reading this review right now and book your next move with AM & PM Moving. It will be one of the best moves you'll ever make."

"Mr. Renshaw arrived on time and did a thorough tuning the piano. Our piano had not been tuned in many years and I was expecting a scolding from the tuner, but Mr. Renshaw was pleasant, positive and did an excellent job. Neither my wife nor I actually play the piano, it is remnant of our children's music lessons. My wife says that it sounds much better. For me, I can accurately be described as tone deaf. We will not hesitate to use Renshaw Music to tune our piano more frequently in the future."

"We are very pleased with Best Cost Movers for their excellent service and low price. We were moving from a 2 BR condo in Geneva to a house in Hinsdale. We found Best Cost Movers from Angie's list and called Eric for appointment. He set up the moving time and also confirmed it by email. On moving day, Santos and Dan were very careful in packing and moving our furniture. They managed to avoid any scratches or dents to the condo and the house. They were very efficient in both moving and driving. We appreciate their effort in making our move a very pleasant experience."

Piano Moving FAQs, answered by experts

To find a reputable furniture shipper, start by asking your social circle for recommendations. You can also conduct online searches for long-distance or international furniture moving companies. When evaluating potential shippers, read online reviews and testimonials, understand the services they provide, and get quotes to ensure they fit within your budget.

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.

Deciding whether it's worth it to hire movers depends on your budget, patience, and physical capabilities. It's difficult to gauge the amount of work that moving calls for, and it's easy to be off by about tenfold. 

If you're able to call in some favors and round up friends to help, you might get through it just fine, but if you only have a few hands helping, things can quickly get overwhelming. Either way, bringing in the pros will save considerable time and stress, so if it's within your budget, it's a great investment.

Most upright pianos weigh between 500 and 1000 pounds. Other vertical pianos, which are sometimes confused with upright pianos, may be between 200 and 500 pounds. Spinet pianos weigh between 200 and 400 pounds, console pianos are 350 to 450 pounds, and studio pianos are 400 to 500 pounds.

When loading a moving truck, the general rule is to load the heaviest and largest items first to create a stable base at the front of the truck, which helps balance the weight. You can start with large furniture like sofas, beds, mattresses, and tables to form a solid foundation, or begin by placing your heaviest boxes against the truck's walls to create a base layer. After the base is set, continue loading other large items like appliances and square furniture. Lighter and smaller objects, including most of your boxes, should be loaded last. They can be packed into gaps, around, and on top of the heavier items to maximize space. Following this order makes unloading easier and helps prevent damage to your belongings.
