Long Distance Moving & Storage. Household, Commercial, International, Corporate services available. Our Mission is To exceed expectations on every move. We live this day in and day out. Our service is top notch and fully efficient. Our trucks are perfectly equipped for moving with Pads, dollies, Plastic and much more. We provide Long Distance Moves across the entire country, directly from our West Coast HUBS located in AZ, CA, OR and WA. Or, we team with our partner companies to complete moves together. We are proud to provide a service that no other company offers; Dedicated Trucks. This means that your belongings are loaded on the truck and not combined with anyone else’s items (from/to west coast only). They are not transferred to other trucks or facilities in route which causes damage and loss of items (typical with van lines). We have a set loading day and unloading day. This is by far the safest way to ship. Our interstate rates are per 24ft moving van that holds up to 8,500lbs or 1400CuFt. Some customers require one truck and some require more. One truck holds the average 1800SqFt.

"I cannot say enough great things about All Service Moving—and ESPECIALLY Rico and Reyes, who were absolute lifesavers for my last-minute move. After another moving company bailed on me the day before my scheduled move, All Service swooped in and saved the day. Rico and Reyes showed up EARLY, upbeat, and ready to tackle the challenge—even with super heavy furniture that usually requires a 4-person crew. Somehow, the two of them handled everything like pros without a single scratch or ding—on the furniture or either home. What really stood out was how personable, kind, and thoughtful they were. They moved quickly and efficiently, knowing I was paying by the hour, but never once sacrificed care or quality. They were kind to my mom (who was helping me out), and so sweet to my two dogs too. If you’re planning a move, ask for Rico and Reyes by name. They went above and beyond, and I want their team to know what a fantastic job they did. They deserve every bit of recognition. 100% recommend."

Picked up a new sofa-sleeper from a furniture store in Giddings and were at our client’s home in Round Top within 25 minutes. In addition, they unboxed & placed the legs on the sofa, removed the box & before they left, put a rug under a very heavy metal bed for us.

Mustard Seed Moving Co of San Antonio is unique in that we are dedicated to staying small, to keep our reputation big. Instead of growing the company to add more trucks and teams, we remain as 1 small, skilled team. The owner of the company, Andrew Sengler, personally assists with the labor for 99% of the moves performed, along with his qualified team. Our website is very informative and includes information about our rates. We also are unique in that we can deliver and pick up good-condition moving boxes before and after a local move. Our box division is called Box-Go-Round. Box-Go-Round prepares you for your move by making it easy to get the right type and right number of boxes. We have a rolling warehouse of new and used moving boxes and moving supplies that conveniently goes to your location, helps you formulate your order and immediately delivers your moving boxes and packaging supplies. We also have packing service available, even if it is just your kitchen you want packed. If your move was a local move, we will pick up your boxes after you are finished with them (free service for 30 or more boxes), or you can bring them back to our warehouse. We offer full refunds for new, unused boxes that you purchased through us. We also buy back any gently-used boxes that you purchased new through us and bring back to our warehouse. Our local delivery is free, as is our local pick up service, as long as the minimum size order requirements are met. All of our prices are posted on our website and they are always current. We carry new and used boxes including wardrobe, dish pack, mirror, small book, medium, large & x-large. We also carry tape, blank newsprint packing paper, moving pads, markers and other important moving and packing supplies. We are based in San Antonio, TX and our warehouse is near Culebra and 1604, on the NW side of town. Cost is determined by the job. Additional DBA - Box-Go-Round. Additional address- 8223 Leslie Rd, San Antonio, TX 78254.

"Amazing! The Mustard Seed crew arrived early and surveyed the scope of work. They organized quickly and began dismantling the furniture pieces. All the parts/bolts were bagged, and everything was well wrapped. The baby grand piano was disassembled and wrapped with extreme care. Special consideration was given for the unloading team with the crew building a platform to protect the piano during transport and ease the unloading. What was more is that they screened the moving company at our destination to ensure they had the piano moving expertise. Then the Mustard Seed crew sent photos and diagrams of how things were packed in advance to the company that unloaded us. Mustard Seed Moving seasoned load masters maximized every square inch of space. After moving many times in the Military, I have never seen the level of professionalism and care that Mustard Seed Moving provided to us during this move. Once we arrived at our destination the local company explained that they had been briefed in advance by Mustard Seed Moving and knew what needed to be done. Mustard Seed Moving has set a new standard for moving."

Locally owned & operated. We have a large fleet of trucks to accommodate every type move . We have full time experienced professional movers. We perform background checks and drug testing on all employees. We do NOT hire temporary labor. We have been in business since December 2005. We are fully licensed and insured household goods movers. . We specialize in local and long distance residential moves.

"I hired John Ferguson to move my household after reading excellent reviews. I have been beyond disappointed. First, he sent a 3 man crew to move a 3,192 sq ft house with a 500 sq ft casita with only a local truck and trailer. After 2 loads for both the truck and trailer, all goods were not moved and I had to hire someone else to finish. None of his employees could back a trailer. They hit my gate and messed it up. One of my friends fixed it when Mr. Ferguson did not. While unpacking, I discovered 3 pieces of treasured pottery broken. Two pieces were very delicate pottery crosses. I told his employees I would pack those. Well, they put them in bubble wrap on the BOTTOM of a box with a lamp and an I-Robot on top. One is absolutely shattered. They put a pottery bowl in a box of heavy vases, with very little wrapping; it's in too many pieces to repair. Mr. Ferguson's response was for me to glue it back together. And, a portion of my Stickley library table is missing. He has failed to respond to my text regarding that. I cannot recommend John Ferguson Moving & Storage."

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

The best way to save money when hiring a moving company is to pack and protect your belongings yourself, which includes wrapping delicate items in bubble wrap, putting belongings into organized boxes, and taping the boxes closed. You can then leave the more dangerous and physically demanding work—like loading and unloading the boxes and moving furniture—to the professionals. You can also save money by scheduling services in advance and moving during the off-season, which is usually the winter.

Hiring professional movers is usually worth the investment. These moving pros have the expertise and experience to get the job done quickly and safely, saving you time and potentially avoiding damage to your belongings. Professionals are especially a good idea if you’re moving long distances or large, bulky items, like furniture, pianos, or vehicles. Pros will also know when you need moving permits based on where you live and whether or not the moving truck will block traffic. 

While it's not expected, tipping junk haulers is a kind gesture when the team goes above and beyond for piano disposal. Lugging and breaking down a piano requires specialized equipment, maneuvering, and a lot of strength. When your junk haulers take particularly good care of your home during the process, consider tipping between 10% and 20% of the total bill to split among the team or $10 to $20 per hauler.

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.

The cost to ship furniture can range from $300 to $4,500 per piece, depending on the size and weight of the item and where it’s being shipped to. For a cross-country move, which companies consider any distance over 400 miles, it will cost $300 to $800 per piece to ship furniture. For an international move, shipping will cost around $1,000 to $4,500 per piece.
