"They were quick, efficient, professional and caring about the stuff they moved.  It went very smoothly and Stefan was a pleasure to work with.  His whole crew was exceptional.  I would use them again.  There isn't enough good things I can say about Sterling Moving and Storage.

"Used capital city for a recent move within NJ. Very professional from start to finish. Started with Brandon who provided a very competitive quote ( I had quotes from 3 other companies). He took his time to create a thorough inventory list. On the moving date, Sash and his crew were extremely professional and polite all through the 10 hours of loading, moving and unloading. They took great care of the items and did all the hard work with a smile on their faces. Would highly recommend them!! Thanks and good job."

"I was very pleased with the services we received from Moving Ahead, Garden City Park. My son was moving his things from our garage/basement to his apartment in Ridgewood. We called on a Wednesday and were able to book 2 men to help us on Saturday morning. The price quote we got was fair and Danny helped us out with our needs. They called to confirm the appointment and on the day of the move they called to confirm that they were on their way. They were very professional and helpful even if we had more boxes than I originally thought. They were very efficient got everything loaded in the truck in an hour. The movers were also helpful when we asked if they could also help us pick up a couch that my son was buying a few blocks from their new apartment. We could not have moved in such a timely and efficient fashion without their help. Will definitely hire them again."

"It went absolutely perfect They packed all my belongings for me and loaded truck in same day... 3 men...approx 5 hrs to do all this work My things were delivered to my new home on day and time promised Driver even called me evening before to re-confirm the agreed upon time and when they arrived they unloaded everything and placed my furniture where I asked them to All was packed so well that when I unpacked the many boxes, I found so much paper wrap that it was "hard" to find the item...LOL! But this is what kept all my things in great condition; plus, my furniture (each piece) was wrapped with quilts and plastic Everything was in great condition; no damages, no breakages! Would recommend them for short or long distance moves As a matter of fact this is the 2nd time I used McAvery Movers b/c the 1st time was a short distance move approx 6 1/2 yrs ago and everything went so very very well that I didn't hesitate to use them again The men who work for McAvey are professional, friendly and extremely trustworthy Kudos to them!"

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

Moving insurance helps protect your belongings from damage or loss during the moving process. This policy can help reimburse you either part of or the total amount of your belongings that become damaged during the moving process. Moving insurance has three main options: full value protection, released value protection, and third-party or separate liability coverage. Speak with your moving company to determine what is covered under each policy and their cost to determine the best fit for your needs. 

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.

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.

Yes, you can very carefully lay down a grandfather clock to move it, but it requires a bit of prep work. Remember, all of your clock's components and mechanisms are delicate, and shifting them can cause serious damage. Before laying it down, you will need to remove these pieces, plus the weights and the pendulum.

Unfortunately, moving scammers exist, so it’s important to thoroughly vet your moving company before scheduling a service date. Your moving company is likely legitimate if the offer fits within the average cost range, they provide proper contracts and moving insurance, don’t require a large deposit, and have several positive and recent online reviews from previous customers. Feel free to request previous customer information from the moving service and contact them to inquire about their experience to ease any lingering concerns.
