"I wanted to move my piano into climate-controlled storage while I was having new flooring installed in my home, so I found Johnson’s Piano Moving based on their excellent online reviews. Ted from Johnson’s worked with me to have my piano moved into their climate-controlled storage for a week during the installation. My house has a side entrance which made the move pretty challenging, but the excellent crews who moved the piano out and back in were very creative in accommodating the challenge with the front door and they took great care not to damage my railings on the stoop. I highly recommend Johnson’s Piano Moving!"

"This was the most coordinated and professional move I’ve ever experienced. Working with Jose Was great, he made sure that I was informed about every step of the move and stuck to the initial estimate. Items were securely, packed, and movers were cautious with any larger fragile items. Would not hesitate to use their services again in the future."

"We heard of all service moving from a family members’ recommendation. Move went very smoothly! Nathaniel, SeaBass and Dominic really took care of our furniture, everything was neatly wrapped up so nothing would get damaged. Would hire again!"

"We had a baby grand piano moved by Milos and his crew. Wow is an understatement of the care and attention they showed when they moved the piano! Being military, we have moved quite frequently and have seen many movers. This was by far the most professional, detailed movers we’ve ever seen. We were super impressed with their service. Milos was also great and responsive to scheduling the appointment. You can’t go wrong with Red Carpet Moving, and we will be using them again should we need anything moved."

"Abba showed up only a few minutes late due to traffic to start the move, but they called ahead of time to let us know. The movers were very friendly and started working immediately. They securely wrapped or boxed all furniture, mirrors, and pictures.
Only one piece of furniture was damaged: a small desk leg was broken. It was raining and the mover slipped on the truck. Abba offered to send someone out to fix it or give us the money it would cost to fix it. We took the money and fixed it ourselves. Luckily all it took was some epoxy. It wasn't a very expensive desk, so since I was able to fix the leg, my wife overlooked the incident.
I really only have 2 complaints about the experience. We were told by the estimator that we didn't have to empty our dressers as the movers would move them with the clothing in them. When the movers started working, they said the dressers would be too heavy and they would have to empty them. This cost time and packing material, neither of which are free. My second complaint is that the estimator severely underestimated the amount and cost of packing materials needed. The quote was for $94, but the final cost of materials was nearly $400. This easy even after the foreman claimed he cut me a break/didn't charge me for some of the materials. I would warn and caution anyone hiring a mover to clarify during the estimation how much packing materials will really be needed.
Bottom line, the movers were friendly and worked hard, and only damage one piece of furniture due to an accident. We would certainly recommend Abba to be considered for a move job and would ourselves consider using them again.

Moving questions, answered by experts

You shouldn’t need to move out during a kitchen remodel. However, if it’s an extensive project, expect a lot of dust and construction debris in the kitchen and potentially spread through the house. Your kitchen will also be out of commission, so you’ll need an alternative plan for cooking.

Planning your office move should ideally start three to six months or more in advance. This timeframe allows plenty of time for tasks such as researching moving companies, creating a budget, coordinating with employees, decluttering and organizing, packing, and addressing any logistical challenges. Starting early also ensures that you have flexibility in scheduling and can handle unexpected hiccups that may arise during the planning process.

Planning ahead is essential—this will give you the chance to coordinate your move during weekends or after business hours, and set up essential services in your new office before moving day to minimize downtime. Start by creating a detailed timeline and checklist for every phase of the move, from packing to unpacking. Inform your employees, clients, and vendors about the move well in advance, including any expected disruptions and how you plan to manage them. Delegate responsibilities to ensure all aspects of the move are covered. Lastly, set up the essentials at the new location first to resume operations quickly.

The first step in moving a house is to provide blueprints and assess which parts of the house you can move. The next steps are obtaining permits, inspecting the structure, securing road permits, and getting bank approval.

When it's time to move, professionals can prepare the house by disconnecting utilities, removing items, and adding support braces. The house is then lifted with steel beams, jacked up, and placed on dollies for transport. Once it’s at the new location, it gets lowered onto the new foundation, utilities get reconnected, and additional features, like porches or garages, are added.

At the low end, a simple consumer treadmill may weigh around 200 pounds. At the high end, large treadmills made for gym use with lots of bells and whistles can weigh up to 500 pounds. Research your treadmill’s make and model to determine its exact weight before attempting to move it.
