Ted was super responsive and friendly. I'd highly recommend Johnson's Piano Moving. Very professional; these guys knew what they were doing and coordinated their movements with each other very well. Thanks, guys. Well done! read more

Needed one piano moved to another address and another just moved from one room to another. Johnson Piano Movers were very responsive over the phone when scheduling and quoted a very competitive price. Their guys showed up on time, calling before arriving. They were respectful of the property and very efficient. We would definitely recommend them. read more

I want to begin that this review is mainly around the customer service in setting up an appt, and not an actual appointment. But I felt it was worth sharing still. In the midst of renovating our home, we needed to have a piano moved so that we could refinish our floors. We were told this at the last minute. We called Johnson's movers and they were quite flexible with the date. We first told them we needed them on a Tuesday. Then the contractor called us, and we said we needed them for a Wed. We called Johnson back and they said they could do it. Unfortunately, the contractor called again and said the new date was Thursday - which was a date the company could not do. I wanted to find a way to recognize their incredible customer service in trying to meet our needs, and thus I'm sending this review. If we needed a mover we would use them instantly! read more

Johnsons moved my Steinway S from NYC to MD last week. The 3 movers were polite and efficient and knew what they were doing. They dropped off the piano that evening in MD without a hitch and the piano sounded as good as it did before they picked it up. The only reason they didn't get 5 stars is because there was confusion getting the insurance documents to the building in time and we had to hold the movers for several hours waiting for insurance documents to arrive to the building manager. Overall I was very satisfied with Ted and his team and will use them again. read more

I have used this company to move my grand piano several times bow. They are always great. They are very efficient and careful with the piano and my living space. I used them most recently this week for a local move. I had to change the drop off time last minute due to an emergency. Ted (the guy who coordinated the move) worked with me to accommodate my emergency and make sure my piano was delivered. He was very understanding if the situation and did not create an issue out of the change which I appreciated. The movers were friendly and awesome. One of the movers, Raymond, actually moved my piano 2 years ago and on both occasions was incredibly friendly. Prices are comparable to other local piano moving companies but they provide great service and are super reliable. I highly recommend this company for piano moving. read more

Over the years, we have used several different piano movers in the metropolitan D.C. area. Johnson Piano Moving was our latest choice, and they did an excellent job. They called ahead to give us an ETA and arrived on time. They were fast, efficient, and polite. There was no bumping into walls or any other concerns. We'd gladly choose Johnson Piano Moving again! In fact, we already recommended them to a friend and showed the men the site so they knew what was ahead of them. read more

Awesome company, was worried at the cost and care of moving my father's piano, they were excellent!! They were affordable, on-time, and very friendly people, Would recommend this company to anyone needing a piano moved. They called ahead, were very fast and very careful moving piano. Thanks so much for taking such great care of my special piano!!!! read more

Prompt, courteous, careful and efficient. Competitively priced for the comparatively smaller job of moving my piano to a different floor within my home. read more

Today the piano I learned on and then our daughter is being moved. Now our grandsons will learn. Thank you Johnson's Piano Movers for gently handling a part of my life. read more

Ted and his team were a dream to work with on this move. I had an 800 lb heat press (not a piano), and they generously agreed to take on this unique challenge. They were on-time, professional, and safely got the job done. Communication was clear and pricing was fair. Would definitely recommend! read more

Ted was very accommodating when my scheduled piano movers cancelled at the exact time of pickup. He was able to schedule me for the very next day. Three guys arrived and were awesome! I watched as they worked together seamlessly. They moved my piano swiftly and very careful. Professionals. I was very impressed. I would definitely work with them again if needed. The price was also reasonable. read more

We were very satisfied with our piano move. They arrived exactly when they said, were extremely efficient and courteous. The piano arrived in perfect condition. The price was reasonable. read more

I highly recommend! They were very quick, reliable, and delivery men were very kind. The price was very reasonable.

Johnson's Piano Moving delivered a ~ 600 lb Kawai upright to my fourth-floor walk-up apartment in DC with just a four-person crew. I had previously tried to get the piano delivered using the company for which the piano dealer offered free delivery. However, that company showed up totally unprepared for stairs (first question was "where's the elevator?"), and told me the only way to get it delivered would be via my balcony and a crane, to the tune of $1,500! So I called up Johnson's Piano Moving, and just four days later, their crew showed up at my building and CRUSHED the grueling move in less than one hour. Luckily, they have a good relationship with my piano dealer and the latter was willing to split their fee with me. Johnson's was super professional, friendly, and reasonably priced given the exceptional difficulty of the move. Great communication beforehand, showed up right on time, and not a scratch on the piano either. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants a job done quickly and done right. read more

I would highly recommend this company. Ted was professional and incredibly easy to coordinate with, had excellent communication, reasonably priced, and his company arrived ON TIME and delivered my piano in one piece without incident. read more

I used Johnson's Piano movers recently to move my grandmother's cherished upright piano -- not much dollar value but a whole lot of heart. They totally get it. Ted responded quickly -- I had to move the piano from its location to my house within three days (moving/closing logistics), and when my husband unexpectedly got covid, they had an option to store the piano at a very reasonable rate until the house was covid-free. The movers themselves were pros, fitting it into the space I wanted with care and consideration, showing up when they said they would, and polite and gentlemanly throughout. I needed to replace the piano bench, and Ted had his warehouseman, Sule, find a great match at a phenomenal price and gave me the option of picking it up myself. Throughout the process, Ted and Sule and the movers themselves were great communicators, and wonderful to deal with. I cannot recommend them highly enough. read more

I could not be happier ... After months of trying to find a company that could move a baby grand piano from NY to VA, I was lucky enough to discover Johnson's Piano Movers. I was a little apprehensive about hiring a company I'd never worked with to move a piano that had been in my family for three generations, but they were responsive throughout the process of setting up the move and polite, professional, and prompt during. The price was extremely reasonable, and I was stunned they arranged to pick up and deliver the piano on the same day. The piano looks great in its new home. Definitely a great experience, and I'd recommend Johnson's without qualification. Thanks! read more

Absolutely professional service in DC metro area. Highly recommended! When they say they could accommodate short notice moving schedule, they mean it. I only gave them the notice two days ahead and they did squeeze me into their busy schedule. How nice! Compared to other movers, they charge you very reasonable price for it. Just FYI, they do have additional fees for stairs and sharp turn. But even with that extra charge, it's still cheaper than a lot of others. Call and ask for quote with a clear price break-down, they will give you a very satisfactory service. Suggestion: the more detail you provide (type of piano, pickup&dropoff locations, whether having stairs and etc.), the more accurate quote you will get. read more

Professional, polite, and affordable. They were quick and friendly while working on a complicated move down a narrow staircase.

Johnson's did a great job moving my upright. The piano was wrapped and securely attached to the side of the van (not all regular moving companies do that). The three men safely got the piano up a narrow staircase and around a VERY tight corner without damaging the walls, floors, or piano. I was a little concerned when the piano was coming up because the wheels banged the stairs a couple of times, but everything was fine. The price was a little higher than other places I called, but I imagine that's because of the high standard of service. They were also available on short notice, which was a bonus. The guys were very friendly and professional. read more

Johnson's Piano Movers came within two days of the request, and did a fantastic job on such short notice. They also fixed a damaged leg super quickly right as I watched! These experienced movers were quick, polite, and reliable. I highly recommend! read more

Johnson's Piano Moving moved a piano for us on Tuesday (from SW DC to Capitol Hill) and I was impressed. The crew was very professional and efficient. They were also very respectful of the person from whom we were buying the piano. They were also reasonably priced compared to the others we consulted. I left my house at 2:15 pm to drive the mile over to the house of the person selling the piano. The piano was in place in my house by 3:00pm and I was back at work. Ted was terrific in arranging the move for us. We bought the piano on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend and Ted was responsive to our calls and emails all weekend. read more

They scraped the cabinet of my upright piano last September. When I complained I got excuses, denials and derision of a family heirloom. The piano should have been wrapped but instead they tossed a blanket over top which was probably more of a distraction than anything. Lesson learned: the customer needs to know what is required to be sure they do it right. The mover also offered to take my other piano to the dump - a ridiculous suggestion which shows a bad attitude about the customer's property. read more

I can't say enough how impressed I was with the job that these guys did. They were courteous, professional and incredibly careful and skilled at their job. We needed to move a grand piano over 500 miles and they did such a great job packing it up and loading it into the truck, we were able to drive it with no worries. The piano did not move an inch in transit and when it was unloaded and assembled at the destination it was not only in perfect condition, but it was still in tune. I highly recommend this company for your moving needs! read more

Wonderful experience. I called on a Thursday am to transport my husband's grandfather's piano from Rockville to Baltimore County. We lucked out and it worked out to deliver it the following day! The price seemed very fair and Ken was able to accommodate a very small delivery window (I have young kids and only had two hours of availability that day). The piano arrived exactly on time and in good condition. The whole process was incredibly easy! read more

Great customer service, great price. Nate and his team picked up my Grandma's piano and moved it to my place across town with great care. They did everything as scheduled and were courteous and respectful. Highly recommend. read more

Great experience. We needed a piano moved pronto, and another company (top rated here on Yelp) bailed on at the last minute. These guys jumped in, no drama, very professional. Nate and his guys were very pleasant and did a great job with the move. I'm a fan of this company. read more

Great people, communication, and overall service. I never moved a piano before. This one was going from a family member in VA to me in NJ. The process was as smooth as I could have imagined. I even called 3-4 different companies and Johnson had the best price. A++ all around. read more

Had to get a piano picked up and delivered last minute today. Needed to find a place I trusted to do this today with very little time. Called this morning and Ted at Johnson Piano worked it in for us and fit us into their schedule. They did exactly what they said they would. Came at the agreed upon time, delivered/set up piano exactly the way I asked them. 3 clean cut professional men in uniforms. They worked well together and seamlessly took the piano off the truck and within minutes had it in my house. What a great team! I would highly recommend them. read more

We are very happy with Johnson's Piano Moving. It was really hard for us to find someone that would accept to move our upright piano in a spiral stairs with 3 very sharp turns, but those guys did it, and in a very professional way. They did it pretty quickly (in 40 minutes), without any damage. And they came 2 days after we asked for their estimate. I can tell it is hard to find good piano movers. The first company we hired, just left the piano downstair in the hallway of our building because "it was too heavy for them". What a shame! read more

I had a great experience with Johnson's! They moved my piano from Fairfax, VA to New York City for an incredibly reasonable price. They were very easy to work with, moved the piano in and out with incredible efficiency, and the piano arrived in great shape. I was initially a little nervous because I never signed anything, but our whole correspondence was via email so I had it in writing. I highly recommend them for short or long distance moves! read more

Marcus and his team did a wonderful job getting our family-treasured, 100+ year-old upright piano moved safely into our new home. They were very professional to work with and kept in communication throughout the move (they had to pick up from my Aunt and Uncle's and then move to my house). This is a beast of a piano but they were in good spirits and didn't complain a bit about getting it into and out of tight spaces. Additionally, their price was very fair. Would definitely use them again and recommend to anyone. read more

I highly recommend Johnson's! I had a baby grand moved from Alexandria, VA to North Potomac, MD and they did a wonderful job. They were extremely professional and their price was unbelievably reasonable at $259. Cannot say enough good things about them!!! read more

I never spend time write review online. But this one I must. They arrive on time, professional, polite, and especially fast!!! I moved one baby grand piano from Alide to south riding. $395, no hiding fee...... If you need get your piano move choose Johnson's piano move, you won't disappoint, read more

They moved our super heavy upright yesterday and were wonderful!!! Fast, friendly, very reasonable price -great group.

I had my mother's beloved Steinway piano moved by this company to a storage unit from my parent's house. I suggested that they move the piano down some front stairs and out a double door and across 20' on a walkway to the truck. Instead, without asking me the mover backed the truck up to the back of the house where there were some narrow concrete steps to the second floor. For this, the piano needed to go out a back door with a very tight 90 degree turn to the narrow steps with an iron railing. Presumably the mover did this so the piano could be loaded directly into the truck rather than having to carry it a little further if it went out the double doors. It was only one man and his son. When I asked if this was a good idea the mover didn't say much and kept going. When the long distance movers came to the storage unit to pack and move the piano along with other household items to another state they showed me the damage that had been caused by the improper way the piano was moved and literally dumped into storage. There were very large scrapes where the black lacquer was scraped off the side, deep impression marks where the piano obviously hadn't made the tight turn and the damage where it had been pushed into the storage unit. It hadn't been placed on a piano board and nothing had been done to block the inside despite my asking if I needed to do anything else to properly store the piano. The long distance movers couldn't even find some of the pieces that had just been stuck inside the piano. I now have to find a company to repair and refinish the damaged areas, if this is even possible. No idea of what damage there is to the inside although the movers said a piano should not stay on its side for any time without being blocked. A very painful and costly mistake that I feel sick over. May have to send it to Steinway to get it back to where it was. My mistake was to be uninformed as to what to do properly and to rely on a company that I thought had this expertise to move the piano and to give me the information I needed. read more

Use them last month to safely get a piano out of our house onto a moving truck. Pleased with all aspects of the transaction from communication to the movers, etc. read more

Called and left a message on Saturday, confirmed pick-up/drop off/price on Sunday-- 2 days later the piano is at my house. prompt, efficient, will use them again if I need my piano moved again!! read more

Johnson's was very professional and efficient. They moved a baby grand piano for me from a high-rise apartment building to my rowhouse. They said they would arrive between 2-4pm, and they showed up right on time. The three men moved the piano up seven stairs without any damage at all. They also made sure the piano was positioned correctly before leaving. The whole delivery process took about 15 minutes. The rate was very reasonable ($290) as I had checked with several moving companies before choosing Johnson's. read more

I called Johnson's yesterday. They gave me a quote over the phone and an approximate time they would pick it up from a storage facility in Columbia and move it to Burtonsville. They did a great job. They were on time, handle the piano carefully, and charged me the reasonable price of $175.00. Other companies wanted between $400-500. Great job! Thanks. read more
