Highly recommend using this moving company!!! Their packing was meticulous!! Kevin was great to work with. His staff was also tedious and did excellent work!! Kindness and honesty stood out and was greatly appreciated! Best movers we've ever used!

After several moves with Von Rentzell, I wouldn't even think of using another moving company. They handled my art work and antiques with care. They have never damaged anything. Their level of professionalism far exceeds any other moving company available.

Top-rated Beatrice piano movers Black Belt Movers, Heartland Moving
Upright piano $616 to $1,155

Added cost to a household move $770 to $1,925

Custom crating and acid-free padding protect pieces that standard released-value coverage at $0.60/lb cannot adequately cover. A 50-lb antique valued at $5,000 receives only $30 under default protection, making full-value coverage the standard choice for heirloom and high-value items.
