"We used this moving company to move out of our old home into a storage unit a month ago and everything went great.  I couldn't be more impressed with a moving company.  Our second experience with this company did not disappoint either.  We were lucky enough to have the same group of 4 guys working this time as we did when we moved out.  Every single one of them were punctual, professional and some of the hardest workers I've ever seen.  They were constantly moving quickly, efficiently and carefully (not to damage any of our things or the walls, floors, etc of our new home).  We had a couple of really difficult items to move down a narrow staircase and the guys carefully planned it out and executed it flawlessly.  I've recommended this company half a dozen times to people I know that are moving just in the past month.  While I plan to NEVER move again, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this moving company to absolutely anyone.  If you want a stress free experience during a stressful (face it) time - Above the Crowd is the way to go.  Thank you again guys - we couldn't be happier."

"The movers were high school students who were very nice but had limited experience moving furniture. Several pieces of furniture were left in the garage because they could not figure out how to get them in my new house. I then had to hire another moving company to move the pieces into the house."

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

To prepare for moving a piano, start by documenting its current condition with photos in case of any damage during the move. Secure the piano's lid and wrap the instrument, including its keys and pedals, with bubble wrap and moving blankets for protection. Note that if you have hired professional piano movers, they may handle this step for you.

Next, prepare the space. Measure any tight spaces or doorways to ensure the piano will fit through. Clear a wide path from the piano's location to the exterior door, removing any furniture or obstacles. It is also helpful to prop open doors to make the exit easier.

On moving day, ensure the moving truck can park as close to the exit as possible. For safety, keep children and pets away from the moving area to prevent accidents or distractions.

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.

Yes, tipping each mover separately ensures that everyone on the team gets their fair share.

It's typically best to hire movers who specialize in moving pianos because moving them often requires specific equipment and finesse, especially when it comes to grand pianos. However, some standard moving companies have experienced piano movers on their team, so it never hurts to call a company and ask about their piano moving expertise.

Moving a one-bedroom apartment yourself can range from $150 to more than $1,500, depending on distance, the amount of belongings you have, and more. On the other hand, the cost of hiring movers for a one-bedroom apartment is around $1,850 on average. You’ll save money with the DIY route, but the process is much more labor-intensive and time-consuming.
