"Although they did show up 30 minutes late, the clock for work didn't  begin until after they actually got a look at the job to be done and started moving everything. Chris ran crew very professionally, directing them while working along side them. He would catch and correct near mistakes (wall! left corner! fingers! etc )  so quickly which kept his crew safe and all of our belongings intact. Well, almost all. We were disappointed when a large office desk was dropped but we were equally impressed with Chris' handling of the situation. One thing to note was that looks are deceiving. We expected large, bulky, muscled men to show up to move our items which included an extremely heavy safe. The crew was of average size except the crew leader Chris. He's truly super model thin but when I say SUPER HUMAN  strong, I am not kidding!!!  Holy Wow! That safe I mentioned, yeah he basically pulled it up the ramp onto the truck BY HIMSELF. I am not exaggerating. My husband still tells people about "the amazing skinny mover". Not only would we recommend them but if we ever have to move again we will use New Caney Movers and request skinny Chris!

"I worked with Ivan G. and his crew from AB moving this week and this was, by far, the best moving experience I've ever had. What set this move apart are a few things. The team was professional in their communication with me. Lindsey (in the sales office) was very reassuring about the process and answered all my questions. Ivan and the team wrapped everything, which protected it in the moving process. They worked with purpose and efficiency but drove the truck slowly -- a necessity with all the potholes in my new area. I thought the pricing was reasonable for all my belongings. It took less than 3 hours from start to finish, which is about what I had assumed it would take. When we got to the home they put the boxes in the appropriate area and re-constructed my bed frame. I am a very happy customer."

"Three men came to move the sofa up steep stairs , turn sharply at the top and precisely maneuver into the correct location.  It was a very congested work area.   They got the job done quickly and without a snag or smudge anywhere.   The sofa is upholstered in a jacquard fabric and they handled it with care.  They were very easy to work with and made a big juggling act look easy.  I will be sure to ask for their help should I need to again.

"They were professional, on time, exceeded my expectations, and I will use them again. I already recommended them to my daughter who is moving soon. They took great care of my wife's piano. I called at least 15 other movers who used every excuse not to move the 500 lb tub. I even had another mover who I had to fire on the spot because they scratched the tub before they ever got out of the garage. They gave me a quote for the move, it was spot on. There were no surprises and they never made an excuse that the tub was too heavy. If you have something heavy that you need moved, these are the movers to call.

Piano Moving FAQs, answered by experts

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

Yes, many office moving costs are tax deductible, but only businesses are eligible to deduct moving expenses on their taxes. Personal moves, such as relocating for a new job or moving from an apartment to a house, are not deductible. 

However, not all business taxes are deductible by that business. Deductible business moving expenses are limited to the direct costs associated with relocating office supplies and equipment. This process encompasses brokerage fees for securing a new location, space surveys, packing, loading, transportation, and unpacking. Costs related to moving employees or other indirect expenses are not eligible for tax deductions.

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.

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.

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.
