"All Some Movers was very professional and called the day before my family members move to verify the price, time, and date of move. On the day of the move, the drivers called when they were 30 minutes away and arrived on time. They worked up a sweat and worked diligently to get all the items on the first floor loaded within the 2 hour time frame we requested. We purchased the deal of $170 for 2 hours of moving plus $30 for gas so $200 total. Would re-hire again for our next move."

"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."

"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.

"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.

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

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.

Professional movers take care of safely loading, transporting, and unloading all of your belongings. Many movers also offer specialty pricing for whole-house packing, furniture disassembly, relocating fragile items, and more. You’ll benefit from having a moving team take care of your move quickly and efficiently.

There are several effective ways to save money when hiring a moving company, primarily by handling some tasks yourself and being strategic with scheduling. Consider these methods:

  • Pack Your Own Belongings: You can significantly reduce costs by packing and protecting your items yourself. This includes wrapping delicate items, organizing them into boxes, and taping the boxes closed. You can use towels, clothes, and suitcases to pack belongings and protect breakables.

  • Provide Your Own Materials: Source free packing materials from friends and family, or reuse boxes and bubble wrap from a previous move.

  • Schedule Strategically: Book your move well in advance. Rates are often lower if you schedule your move on a weekday during the off-season, which typically runs from October through April.

  • Compare Quotes: Get moving quotes from at least three professional movers in your area. This allows you to compare services and choose the best value.

  • Ask for Discounts: Inquire if the moving company offers any special coupons or deals.

  • Purchase Moving Insurance: Protect your investment by purchasing moving insurance, especially for expensive or antique belongings.

  • Divide the Labor: While you can save money by packing, it's wise to leave the more dangerous and physically demanding work—like loading, unloading, and moving heavy furniture—to the professionals.

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.

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.
