"We have worked with over 30 moving companies here in Albuquerque and the surrounding areas. All claim to be the best and this and that...We call bs and never again will believe the hype. Even less when it comes from random so called moving companies or individuals off Craigslist. Fresh Start Moving Company is hands down, genetically superior to any we've ever dealt with. Although they come with a price point to match their unmatched overall quality and moving experience, they are worth every penny. Don't believe you get what you pay for and or prefer to go the cheap route? I wish you the best. You'll regret it...We've already learned better, the hard and expensive way. You always get what you pay for... Don't forget, we've already tried all the other moving companies... We normally pay $95 per hour for 2 gentle yet beast mode activated workers plus $48 trip fee for their lift equipped truck. Not the cheapest in town but these guys will earn every penny and actually save you money at the end of the day via not wrecking any of your belongings and not lagging or dragging out the job... Whether we have used their services for entire house moving, pianos, organs, pools tables, run of the mill furniture, high end mid century pieces and antiques, these guys lift like monsters yet are extremely diligent, delicate and protective when the need to be arises. Needless to say since being Fresh Start we have never and never again will call upon any other moving company other than Fresh Start for any and all of our moving needs. Hats off to : Big Eric aka "The Human Fork Lift" Julian, "The Furniture Teleporter" John, "The Man With The Plan" To confirm this review is 100% legit and not written by the company or friend of, feel free to give us a call at 505-710-1126 and we'll personally, as a Fresh Start Client for life be glad to talk to you about our past and on going experiences with FS. Ask for James. Cheers"

"Andrew did a great job of educating us about our piano, making recommendations based on our needs, and providing wonderful service. He was able to make a very old piano that has been sitting lifeless in our home for years usable again. He was honest about what we could expect regarding the age and shape of our piano and we have been thrilled with the results. We will definitely call him when it is time to get it tuned again."

"Am happily writing this review. Direct pro logistics did a fantastic job of moving me from Southern California to Northern California. They were prompt, courteous and professional. The 2 gentlemen handling my move were very thoughtful and thorough. I had not finished packing everything and they carefully packed and wrapped my furniture. They were quick , efficient and hard working. My furniture was delivered on time and quickly unloaded. Thank you so much for taking the stress out of the move. Judy"

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

The average cost to hire professional movers is approximately $1,700, but the total price can range from as low as $920 to over $12,000 depending on the move's complexity. For local moves, typically under 100 miles, costs generally fall between $920 and $2,530. Long-distance moves are more expensive, with prices ranging from $2,700 to $10,000 or more.

Several key factors influence the final cost:

  • Distance and Home Size: The mileage of the move and the size of your home.

  • Number of Movers: Hourly rates can range from $25 to $50 for one or two movers, increasing to $100 to $200 for a team of four or more.

  • Services: Additional services like packing, unpacking, and storage will add to the cost.

  • Specialty Items: Moving large or delicate items such as pianos, vehicles, or large aquariums incurs extra charges.

  • Timing and Access: The time of year, your specific moving date, and the ease of access to your home can affect rates.

Don’t forget to account for other potential costs like moving supplies and tipping your movers.

Typically, local moves involve either renting a moving truck and moving yourself or hiring local movers to do the job. For long-distance moves, options include hiring a full-service moving company that handles packing, loading, transportation, and unloading, or using a self-moving service where you load your belongings into a container or trailer and have it transported. Another option is hiring professional movers for labor-only services, where they assist with loading and unloading your rented truck. You can also opt for moving pods or moving containers that can be transported to the destination.

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.

It is certainly possible to move a piano without hiring movers, but it’s not recommended. Not only will you need at least four people to lift and maneuver the piano, but getting it around tight corners and down flights of stairs might not be possible without the help of movers. Plus, pianos are exceptionally heavy and bulky, which means you and any helping hands are at risk of injury, as well as an increased risk of damaging your piano. Ultimately, it’s always worth it to call in a professional piano mover.

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