"Alexis, Angel and Nate at Cal's Moving Help just moved my piano and they did a first rate job. If you need something special moved or even just a general mover, I recommend this company. Communication was good and they called to confirm schedule and start/end addresses. Price was fair and well communicated in advance. The guys worked safely, were careful and respectful of the home and the piano, they were well prepared with correct staff level, equipment and methods and got it all done faster than expected. I highly recommend them."
Trace taking the time and care to wrap and protect each of these vintage arcade machines. Some great classics!

Trace and Alan carrying in one of the many wrapped pieces. Here is a part of a sectional
This piece had long, delicate legs. Instead of carrying by hand, they opted to use our shoulder dolly. These help take stress off the piece and their backs!

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

A reasonable moving budget for local moves is $880 to $2,540 , while you can expect long-distance moves to cost between $2,700 to $10,000 , depending on distance, house size, and other cost factors. You can calculate your relocation budget by totaling the cost of your moving services, such as renting a moving truck, hiring professional movers, and packing services.

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.

Plastic bins are excellent alternatives to moving boxes. They’re more durable than the traditional cardboard. Have any unused suitcases? Those can make for great storage solutions for your long-term needs. Avoid plastic bags or anything that doesn’t allow for breathability.

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.

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.
