"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."

"Antwan and his crew made the moving process so smooth. It’s a stressful day, but they were so nice. It was like family and friends moving you from how nice they were. They jumped right in and made things happen. They brought an extra truck so they could get stuff out of storage for us, but no extra charge. Highly recommend"

"I hired Lighthouse moving for a recent same city move. From the start to finish Lighthouse Moving exceeded my expectations. John the owner promptly returned my calls, explained in detail the costs, and was upfront and honest. The two professional movers: Cary and Tau were professional, kind, and just all-around great to work with! I will highly recommend Lighthouse Moving to any and all friends in need of an excellent moving company."

"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

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.

There are several effective ways to save money when hiring a moving company, primarily by handling some tasks yourself and being strategic with scheduling. Consider these methods:

  • Pack Your Own Belongings: You can significantly reduce costs by packing and protecting your items yourself. This includes wrapping delicate items, organizing them into boxes, and taping the boxes closed. You can use towels, clothes, and suitcases to pack belongings and protect breakables.

  • Provide Your Own Materials: Source free packing materials from friends and family, or reuse boxes and bubble wrap from a previous move.

  • Schedule Strategically: Book your move well in advance. Rates are often lower if you schedule your move on a weekday during the off-season, which typically runs from October through April.

  • Compare Quotes: Get moving quotes from at least three professional movers in your area. This allows you to compare services and choose the best value.

  • Ask for Discounts: Inquire if the moving company offers any special coupons or deals.

  • Purchase Moving Insurance: Protect your investment by purchasing moving insurance, especially for expensive or antique belongings.

  • Divide the Labor: While you can save money by packing, it's wise to leave the more dangerous and physically demanding work—like loading, unloading, and moving heavy furniture—to the professionals.

Yes, there are sometimes hidden costs when hiring a moving company. These can include fees for packing, handling, and assembling specific large items, fees for packing materials used, and charges for trips over a certain mileage. To avoid hidden fees, always request a detailed quote before booking or paying a deposit.

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.

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.
