"There was an additional cost to the Big Deal that I bought. The price seems reasonable for the service. I know it was tuned properly. He was a very interesting man. He literally explained to me all of the working of the piano insides. He was very knowledgeable. He did the work that was requested in a timely manner."

"We had two movers come, they end up being earlier than expected. They were both very friendly, fast, and easy to work with. We only moved about 10 pieces of heavy furniture to move and had no problems.

"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."

"I love Coffey Bros.! Their reservation process is easy and painless, their crews show up on time, and I've never seen movers work more efficiently, quickly, and at the same time, carefully. Both times I've moved with them they've come in UNDER their estimates for both time and costs. Once, we moved on the coldest day of 2016 (!), and this last time, I ended up moving the day after a snowfall, when it wasn't quite as cold but still was a little challenging. Both times, the crews performed beyond expectations; this last time, my crew chief even had a furniture-finish kit and spent some time patching some scratches and dents in my things. I joked with him that the furniture looked better than it had in the first place! Highly recommended."

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

You should consider hiring professional movers for moves that seem too daunting, dangerous, or involve large, heavy objects. The larger your home and the longer the distance, the more likely you are to need professional help. A moving service can take the hardest tasks off your plate and reduce the risk of personal injury. However, if you are only moving a few light items, you can save money by moving on your own and renting a truck. Keep in mind that a DIY move requires significant planning and time. A hybrid option is also available, where you hire movers just to lift and transport heavy items to your vehicle.

It is best to book a moving company two to three months before your move-out date. This provides enough time to compare rates, organize your belongings, and find an available crew for your desired day and time. While you might find movers with only one or two weeks' notice, some companies require booking up to 90 days in advance.

Planning ahead is especially important if you're moving during the busy summer season when demand is highest. Summer weekends, in particular, book up quickly. Securing your movers well in advance helps you avoid the stress and potential extra fees of last-minute arrangements.

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.

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.

Qualified piano movers will take several steps to protect your piano from damage during the move. First, they'll wrap the piano to protect its finish. Ideally, they'll wrap the piano in a specialized blanket that features a soft, padded interior and a tougher exterior. 

After wrapping your piano, the movers will securely strap it to a dolly for safe transport to and from the moving truck. Once the piano is in the truck, movers might put the piano on a piece of plywood to help level it during the move, depending on the truck bed. They will then strap it in place so it doesn't shift around during the drive to your final destination.
