I've used big commercial moving companies for past moves but Two Men and a Truck surpassed them all. The office team was very friendly, helpful and flexible. The moving team was excellent! They were on time, worked as a team, extremely polite and very careful with handling my items. Extremely professional and would use this company again.

I urgently needed to arrange a corporate move, and Two Men and a Truck stood out by providing a prompt and reasonable quote. The actual move exceeded my expectations! The movers were highly professional, handling all furniture and items with great care.

Piano moving in Montgomery Details
Montgomery movers offering this 90 of 102 (88.24%)
National average 72.74%
Top-rated Montgomery piano movers M & M Movers Inc., TWO MEN AND A TRUCK
Upright piano $1,056 to $1,980
Baby grand piano $1,584 to $3,300
Grand piano $2,376 to $4,620

Upright pianos weigh 400 to 800 lbs. Grand pianos exceed 1,200 lbs. Trained crews use piano boards, straps, and padded blankets to prevent structural damage that standard moving equipment cannot safely manage. Bundling a piano into a household move with full-service movers is usually cheaper than hiring a piano-only carrier.

How much does antique handling cost in Montgomery?

Antique handling is available from 68 of 102 Montgomery movers (66.67%), compared to 46.37% nationally. White Glove Moving & Storage (4.76/5) and Mindful Moving and Storage LLC (4.58/5) rate highest for antique care in Montgomery. Adding antique handling to a household move adds $1,320 to $3,300 to the total cost.

Added cost to a household move $1,320 to $3,300
Per-piece handling fee $66 to $660
Custom crating per item $198 to $264

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.

How much does art packing cost in Montgomery?

Art packing is available from 70 of 102 Montgomery movers (68.63%), compared to 45.86% nationally. Big G Movers Inc (4.58/5) and White Glove Moving & Storage (4.76/5) rate highest for art packing in Montgomery. Per-piece art handling in Montgomery runs $66 to $660, with custom crates adding $198 to $264 per item.

Custom crating per item $198 to $264

Archival materials and custom crates prevent UV exposure, humidity damage, and impact fractures that standard moving blankets cannot guard against for framed artwork and sculpture. Confirm the mover has direct experience with similar media before booking.

How much does climate-controlled storage cost in Montgomery?

Climate-controlled storage is available from 34 of 102 Montgomery movers (33.33%), compared to 33.3% nationally. White Glove Moving & Storage (4.76/5) and Nice Move Inc. (4.56/5) rate highest for climate-controlled storage in Montgomery. Storage-in-transit runs about $0.50 per cubic foot per month, putting a 1-bedroom load (about 514 cu ft) at roughly $339/month in Montgomery.
