Boston Movers

No one has truly prepared for a piano move until they’ve been a part of one. Relocating a piano is a highly complex task involving property that is worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars. It’s a high-stake proposition, and even the most basic move, such as moving from ground level to a ground-level destination, requires highly professional piano movers. This is especially true in a city like Boston where the logistical challenges are exponentially bigger.

Attempting to move a piano by yourself in the Boston area, even with friends at your side, is a recipe for disaster. The move itself, such as in the back of a pickup, is surprisingly rigorous for a full-size piano, and it’s common in that situation for a piano to incur damage that can cost hundreds of dollars in repair. The reason why people take the chance is that they expect Boston piano movers to be extremely expensive. The truth, however, is quite different.

Another area where piano owners, especially new owners, make a mistake is at the point of purchase. Many Boston piano dealers will include delivery free or for a discounted fee. In order to afford this, the dealer signs a long-term contract with a Boston-area piano mover. The problem with these delivery contracts is that they often protect the dealer and the mover from responsibility, and you get what you paid for. Do whatever you can to avoid this.

As an alternative, the buyer can make a deal with the piano dealer to provide his own delivery. In addition, in order to avoid paying full price for that delivery, the buyer can haggle with the dealer to apply the “cost” of the non-used included delivery toward the price of the Boston piano movers that you choose. Of course, most piano dealers won’t be happy about making this deal, but they will make it if the alternative to it is losing the sale outright.

In Boston, many people live in apartments or condominiums in hi-rise buildings. This is one of the most expensive piano moves in the Boston area. It also helps to separate the pretenders from the true pros because damage rates during such moves are quite high. In fact, one way to assess Boston piano movers is to examine their damage rates. The only problem is that accurate information isn’t always accessible to the average person hiring a piano mover.

This is where a service like the one we operate here at Boston Movers can be so valuable. We do have access to damage rates, based on claims and other data sources. We have many contacts within the industry in Boston, and we have the resources to contact people who have recently used a piano moving service in the Boston area. By gathering this information and applying our industry expertise, we’re able to achieve an accurate assessment.

So what’s the point? Well, as you’re probably aware, there are many online portals with a focus on Boston piano movers. This is a lucrative business, after all. But the majority of those portals are simply nothing more than directories of movers who pay the host based on any traffic that clicks through. Boston Movers is considerably different in that we created and operate this network, and we hand select the partners that we include in it.

How do we do that? Well, we use that information we mentioned above, but we have a number of other techniques and criteria as well. We focus on Boston partners who have physical locations in the area, and who actively participate in the community. We also evaluate potential partners based on reputation and customer service, and once they become a partner, we continue to reevaluate them on these aspects every month at a minimum.

By doing so, we’re able to provide you with a number of guarantees. There’s no reason to waste your time researching and interviewing when you can come to our website, plug in your data and have a response within seconds. When you do that, you do so knowing that each piano mover on the report we provide is a business that puts the customer first and above all else. There is no good reason to accept anything less than the best.

When you’re done filling it out, click submit, and then sit back and relax.
