Don't waste your time with finding anyone else. I spend hours calling and waiting for quotes from all moving companies and "piano movers". Went from calling all the moving companies and decided to call piano stores. I called a piano store in Seattle and they are the ones that recommended Piano Pro because that's who they use. Piano pro move was prompt, detailed, and so fast! Not to mention competitive pricing. Other outfits wanted to charge more for an upright. Alton and Cody are top notch! Thanks you guys!

These are the best piano movers, here is why - when getting my floors redone I had to deal moving my baby grand piano which I have had for 40 years. Jacob was great with communication as the schedule shifted several times due to supply chain issues. The crew arrived on time and immediately set my anxiety about having my piano moved at ease, they know what they are doing. As I was getting the entire first floor done Jacob helped problem solve a solution for storing the piano in the garage for the week. I really appreciated the communication, the professionalism and overall the way they handled my piano.

Pro Piano Move did a wonderful job moving my grandmother's black upright Steinway. I am very happy with the service and would recommend them to others looking for professional and easy-to-arrange piano moving. I had an unusual situation and was coordinating moving the piano from a family friend's house while I am located across the country. They made it very easy to coordinate with myself and the family friend in a seamless and simple way. I appreciate all of the help!

Pro Piano Move helped us move into our new house and moved our 6'10 concert grand piano. They were on time, super professional, had a wonderful attitude and were an absolute joy to work with. They got the piano in the new place fast and expertly, were patient on placement, and took great care of our piano -- not a scratch and everything looking and sounding perfect. HIGHLY RECOMMEND them and will definitely use again if we need to move!

Smooth quick and professional. They moved my piano and a cabinet from a storage pod around the backyard with no issues. They took care to place things and not damage the flooring. I would use them again.
