While also an accomplished piano mover, Mark's roots are as a piano technician and rebuilder. As the foreman on every move, his focus is the health and well-being of your treasured instrument.
When you purchase one of our serviced and guaranteed pianos, we offer expert piano moving to your home and provide an in-home inspection just after delivery to ensure your new instrument plays perfectly for you.
Piano moving can be complicated for the average mover. Your piano is both a piece of furniture and a complex musical instrument. Its important to choose a piano mover who is both skilled in moving and skilled with the intricacies of the instrument. We look forward to the opportunity to earn your business.
While we all wish that pianos could live forever, they do get to an age/condition where the cost to repair exceeds the value of the piano.
In those circumstances, we offer removal services.
We offer even long-distance piano moving. Not only can we be hired to move your piano directly, but we also work closely with several nationwide piano shippers to offer cost-effective long-distance piano moving services.
e. Whether you're moving homes, renovating, or saving a treasured family heirloom, sometimes pianos need to be stored. General storage facilities, storage pods, or storing the piano in your garage are not ideal situations for a piano. Pianos react poorly to swings in temperature and humidity; parts can crack and rust. With decades of experience caring for and servicing pianos, our climate-controlled warehouse is just what the technician ordered for your piano storage.
Grand pianos are generally stored on their side. But if you would prefer that your treasured grand piano remain setup in storage, we have the space you need and can accommodate your preference. We can also setup and tune your piano regularly while its in storage or offer reconditioning and rebuilding services during its stay.
We've lost count of the number of times we've heard...
"Wow! I can't believe how easy you just made that look."
"You are deceptively strong"
"I've never seen a team communicate so well"
While moving a piano is complex, it doesn't have to be an ordeal. Our goal is to make your piano move easy on you and your piano.
PLANNING & COMMUNICATION ARE ESSENTIAL
The best move is a well-planned move. Before we even set foot at your house, we have planned your specific move with information that we may ask you during scheduling. This helps us arrive with exactly the right equipment and crew for your specific needs.
When we arrive at your location, we will explore all possible avenues in/out of the building, make a final move plan, and walk through the plan with the entire crew.
During the move, we are in constant communication with one another, to ensure that we are operating as a singular, cohesive unit.
PHYSICS FIRST!
Did you ever wonder in school, "When am I ever going to use this in real life?" We definitely did! But the answer is, We use physics EVERY DAY! You may have heard tales from friends and neighbors about the 5 body-builders they needed to even move the piano out of their house. While strength is needed, moving your instrument is not all about brute force. We embody the phrase, "Work smarter, not harder." By understanding and using physics during your move, we reduce the impact on your piano, your house, and our movers. Its a win-win all around.
WE DESIGN & BUILD OUR OWN EQUIPMENT
With the science of moving in mind, we have designed, built, or modified much of our equipment to be perfect for moving the piano which is more than just a piece of furniture.
WHY WE DON'T USE A BIG BOX TRUCK
Most, if not all, movers will show up with a big box truck to move your piano, so why don't we?
NOT YOUR AVERAGE MOVING CREW
We pride ourselves on being a different kind of moving crew. Our focus is on the health and well-being of your piano as an instrument. Many movers may be skilled in moving and know a little bit about the piano, but as a technician and rebuilder, Mark has the knowledge and expertise about the mechanical aspects of the piano to ensure a safe move and to make small adjustments after delivery to make sure it was playing exactly as it was prior to the move. We strive to complete each move with professionalism and care for your piano and property as if it were our own.
MOVING & SERVICE ALL IN ONE!
Are you looking for a move and your piano could use some work? In many circumstances, we can perform work in your home after the move. In other situations, we can plan a layover at our shop for service and then deliver your piano with most, if not all, the service complete. (Some minor service and regulation is best accomplished with the piano in its new location).
SCHEDULING OPTIONS 7-DAYS A WEEK
Many don't offer service on weekends or its a premium expense. We offer flexible scheduling with no increased cost including evenings and weekends.
WE ALWAYS CALL/TEXT AHEAD
No more waiting 12 - 4pm for the elusive service professional. We try to approximate an hour window the day before. Not only will we call or text if a previous service or traffic delays us, but we always call or text with a more exact time from our GPS as soon as we are on our way to you. Usually, we can provide 20 - 60 minutes advanced notice of our more exact arrival time. So go ahead and go for that walk or do those errands. You don't have to hang around waiting for us.
MOVING, STORAGE, & SERVICE WITH ONE CONTACT
"Oh, you need service, too? Let me transfer you to that department or let me refer someone to you." Those are words that you won't hear from us. We make it easy! With one call, we handle everything!
We look forward to the opportunity to show you a different kind of service experience!
