Fantastic movers, called them for quotes at 9pm evening and they had the piano delivered by 10am the next morning. Extremely fast response and great service.
Negative Piano Moving World Reviews
Aisha Hauser, Google
My piano was mishandled, dropped and damaged. Only 2 people were booked for a 3 person job. The pedal mechanism was not properly connected afterward.
Scott G., Yelp
They double-booked my time slot, moved the window, then never arrived. Calls, texts, and voicemails went unanswered, leaving me to find another moving company.
Brittni Martinez, Google
They called twice to move my time earlier. I agreed, but they damaged my piano; when a piece came off, the mover said nothing could be done.
Neutral Piano Moving World Reviews
Rebecca Stapleton, Google
The move itself went well, but we found the team uncomfortable to be around. They were not very friendly and argued tensely with each other the whole time.
Sean Mccann, Google
Class A excellent job moving and securing the piano. They came very prepared for the job and didn’t mess around. But the main guy ... was not personable at all.
Mollie Ottenhoff, Google
The piano made it from one location to the other, so the job was completed. The person I spoke with for the entire experience was very rude.
