I used Johnson's twice, once for a move to a storage unit, and the second time from storage to our new house. There was a different crew with each move but both crews were efficient and professional. They arrived well within the pickup/delivery window, and communication was seamless. I would definitely recommend them for your piano move. It arrived undamaged and they were great!

Fantastic experience! From the moment I first called until they moved the piano into my house, everyone was so professional and kind! Worked with us for moving times and were very efficient. Everything was so clean too, which I greatly appreciated. The truck was clean, the moving blankets they wrapped the piano in were clean, and the movers kept everything clean. They wore masks, didn't track dirt in, were friendly to chat with, and one gentleman even asked to wash his hands. Very pleased with the experience. Highly recommend.

These gentlemen moved an upright piano for me not long ago. I was extremely pleased with their professionalism and response time. I plan on calling on them again for another piano move in the not too distant future. I definitely recommend these piano movers!

I was able to get a very reasonable price quote over the phone in minutes. The movers were quick, careful, and professional. I can't believe that moving a piano is the easiest thing I've done all week!

Johnson's Piano Moving moved a large upright into our second floor condo (with many steps and a very tight corner). It was an incredibly difficult job, but they did an amazing job! Very professional, top-notch service! Highly recommend!

The person I talked with via telephone was so considerate and pleasant to talk to. Ted understood my needs and concerns regarding moving my piano. The gentlemen that came to my home were so kind and considerate, understanding my needs, professional in every way. They seem to understand my love for my piano. I will definitely recommend your company to anyone.
