Description of Work: We were very happy with their expertise and professionalism in moving both a baby grand piano and an Allen organ. They were even able to drop the two pieces at separate locations without any trouble. I would recommend them.

Description of Work: They picked up my baby grand piano and stored it. About 6 weeks later, the piano was delivered to my new home. We moved 700 miles from Maryland to Florida. They were professional and efficient. There were no glitches from the beginning to end.

Description of Work: Needed to move a 130+ year old piano from North Carolina to Northern VA. Found Modern and was both impressed and pleased at every step in the process. | |From the Customer Support rep who answered the first phone call I made (and worked with me all the way through the delivery weeks later) to the gentlemen (and I don't use that term loosely!) who picked up and delivered the piano, I was consistently impressed by the professionalism, good humor, and helpfulness at every step of the process. | |Because of issues on my side, there were several changes to the schedule and the delivery plan. If they were annoyed or frustrated, you couldn't tell; they remained the same great folks to deal with throughout the process. | |They were exactly on time, every time (to include calling me back and during the updates for the pickup and delivery), treated every person involved in the process (me, my wife, the gentleman from whom we got the piano, etc) like we were the most important people on the planet | |Modern was not the lowest price I found. However, they WERE close, and the treatment I received during the first phone call convinced me to spend the extra money and use them. Looking back on the experience now, I would have been willing to pay far more just for the piece of mind and the complete lack of drama associated with this move. | |Have already recommended them several times, and will continue to do so! | |Great job, great company, and, most importantly, great people!

Description of Work: They moved my very large, old piano from my home to my son's new home. The three men were very professional and knew just how to handle this old relic as well as being careful with respect to the floors, walls etc. during the move. I was very pleased with the service that they provided and would not hesitate to call them again in the future.

Response from Modern Piano Moving
I am the President and General Manager, and my name is Russ. If you can't reach one of the eight professionals who work in my office right now at 800-737-5600, or go on-line at pianomover.com and get a quote 24/7 in five minutes then please call me on my cell, 314-568-6887. And, if you give me the number you called from, I will research what happened and fix it. And if in fact we didn't return your call I will move your piano for half price as a thank you for bringing this problem to my attention.

Obviously, not well
Description of Work: Modern Piano movers just told me they weren't interested in a local move. They only move for over 100 mile distances, advised me to look local mover, and disconnected the call hung up! No "thank you for calling" or even a "good bye!"

Response from Modern Piano Moving
[Member Name Removed], First, I appologize for the unprofessional manner in which your call was handled. Our goal is to help each caller regardless of their needs and that didn't happen. I reviewed our call records with no luck but had already made a change that should fix the problem from occuring again. Second, we do not do local moving because of timing issues and the inefficiency of using tractor trailers for short distance moves. Local piano movers are in a much better position to meet your needs for both scheduling and price. That said, we want to help local customers who call find quality local movers through use of our database of affiliates at [hyperlink removed]. It contains people or companies in your local area who we have used, others have recommended or who have been researched. Finally, I have rewritten our profile on Angie's List to better describe our service as Long Distance. If you still need help finding a local mover please contact me directly, russ@modernpiano.com.

Description of Work: I called Modern Piano to move our piano from my home in Florida to my son's home in Maryland. From my end I was very impressed with the customer service. They were able to pick the piano up on relatively short notice. They kept in contact with me every step of the way until their arrival. The actual move was done quickly and with great care. It was delivered to my son's house even sooner than anticipated. My son wrote this regarding the delivery to his home: They did a great job. Very courteous and careful, not just with the piano but with other items around it as they moved. Excellent customer service as well, they called to confirm the initial delivery window, then a more specific day, then a more specific time. The phone reps when I returned calls were great as well.
