Booked Richard "The Piano Guy" to move my piano about 10km - a very simple job with only a handful…read moreof stairs involved. Firstly, he was very difficult to coordinate with from the get-go. His text message responses were always very short and responses sometimes took several hours, but after some frustration we set up a moving time. On the day of the move, Richard was going to be two hours later than the 11am time slot he told me. He did not call to warn me he was going to be late. I only found out when I messaged him that morning asking if he was still planning on coming. Very basic customer service should be that if you're going to be late then you should inform the customer. He blamed it on traffic (you would have thought a mover would have experienced traffic before and would be able to plan around it). Since he didn't tell me in time, I wasn't able to reschedule an appointment I had and so I was not able to complete the move that day. He reached out four days later proposing a new time that didn't work for me. I proposed a range of alternatives across two different weeks and was told that he has no availability. I would have expected that after he screwed up the first time that he would have taken some extra care and would have tried to accommodate my move, but was told that if I wanted something sooner than I should try a less busy mover. I would recommend staying away from "The Piano Guy" for any alternative, even if they are more expensive. The customer service is really that bad.

We requested 3 guys and a truck to help us move from our house to a new one, and it was nothing but…read morea nightmare. We were originally quoted 140 an hour for the 3 men, and they said it would take about 5 hours. Wrong.. 1 guy showed up with basically a young teenager, an hour later from the time we were told they would be arriving. We were confused but had no choice but to go ahead, as we needed to be out of the house by the end of the day. The 2 guys got what little amount of large items we had left to move in the truck within an hour and a half-amazing. We thought wow this is going to go smooth and fast. Then when it came down to the final large items-washer/dryer and fridge they could not move those items without the 3rd guy. So from 1pm to 3pm they sat in our driveway waiting for this person to arrive. I was really confused on how this was okay? If I am paying for 3 movers then 3 should show up for the day they are scheduled to. They gave us the run around saying well the guy has an appointment or he couldn't get a ride and it was nothing but non sense. Finally after 3pm another young boy showed up to assist. They were struggling to get the washer/dryer down the stairs and there was an issue with getting the fridge out of the house as it did not fit which took a while. Finally at 445pm they finished and took off to the next location which should have only taken 25 minutes at MOST 30 minutes. They did not arrive until 6pm. They decided to go get a drink for an hour and 15 minutes.. after sitting around for 2 hours. I am all for having a break and needing a refreshment but not when its on our dime and expense and taking that long that is not ok. When they arrived at the location of where we were delivering the washer/dryer and fridge the 3 guys struggled to bring in the items into the home of the gentleman who purchased our appliances and in the process scratched his floors along with the washing machine. I have no words for what kind of unprofessionalism occurred. They took an hour to drop those items off at this gentleman's house and during the drop off the 1 boy basically stood there watching as the other 2 struggled. The last stop was our new house which was about 7 minutes from the last location and at this point it is 7pm and we are just wanting this to be over with. My husband myself, my 70 year old father-in-law and 6 year old son are all unloading at this point just for this to be done before 9pm. I understand it was hot and the guys are sweaty, but half of my furniture items delivered were covered in their sweat, and with that came dirty wet hands, so there were dirt fingerprints on all the white dressers and ottomans. Some items were broken and damaged upon delivery as well. We finally finished at 830pm, and after numerous calls with the owner's mother, who was covering for her son, they still tried to quote us $1400. She gave us 100 dollars off for the inconvenience. I am shocked at what an unprofessional company Johnsons is. You request 3 people and get 1 person and children along with it. When we expressed our concerns to the woman, she told the guy why she was giving us a discount, and he decided to come at us for it, saying how can you say we didn't work? I explained to him that he worked his tail off that day, but the other 2 did not. And the fact that we had to assist during the move was a poor reflection on them. I don't understand how a company that says they provide excellent moving services contracts movers who aren't reliable and punctual. On top of all this, when we were looking to pay via credit card that day, the lady said that their accounts were having issues and the only form of payment was cash. Unfortunately, thats not really our problem as a customer. You can't expect people to have that kind of money in cash when you provide all forms of payment. I would highly recommend you use ANYONE else but Johnson's Moving! Worst experience ever.

Like small tools, etc. Every time I go to do a job I realize something else is missing. Everything I moved is unpacked and gone through many times trying to find certain things.

Other problems with the move as well but this is the biggest thing I want to warn others about.

Not only was he affordable and accommodating (other local companies wanted well over $200!), but he was prompt, professional and personable. He spent just over an hour, answered all our questions and informed us about our particular instrument. Bonus: upon completion, he regaled us with a performance (possibly Bach's Prelude in C Major, BWV 846, from The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book 1?). Of course we recommend tipping him for the exceptional work at a super cheap price, the professionalism, the performance, and because of the lengthy travel distance. Highly recommend him.
