"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"

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

Old pianos can be hard to sell for a few reasons. Pianos fifty years or older may only sell for several hundred dollars and will often cost more to transport to the new owners. Restoring a piano also costs well into the thousands, making it pretty hard to make your money back. In most cases, donating or recycling the parts of a piano is more cost-efficient and beneficial in the long run.

Before hiring a moving company to help you with your move, there are a few things you will want to ask, including: 

  • Is there anything your company won’t move? 

  • Does workers’ compensation cover the crew?

  • Will you disassemble and reassemble the furniture? 

  • Are there packing restrictions?

  • Can you guarantee my delivery date?

  • Can you provide references? 

  • What do you charge extra for?

  • What is your cancellation policy?

Tipping movers is not mandatory, and most professional companies do not expect it. However, it is a common way to show appreciation for their hard work and the care they take with your belongings and home. A standard tip is between 10% and 20% of your total bill, split among the crew, or about $10 per mover per hour, tipped individually. It's an especially good idea to tip if the movers work in difficult weather, handle specialty items like pianos or pool tables, provide extra packing services, or go above and beyond your expectations.

In most cases, you don’t need to order food for movers. They will schedule breaks to eat throughout the day. However, you can provide drinks and snacks in an easy-to-access location for the movers to grab throughout the day.

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.
