We heard about Jim through Stilwell Pianos (see http://www.yelp.com/biz/stilwell-pianos-tempe) and he moved our piano from Mesa to Phoenix last October. I was so impressed with his punctuality, professionalism and friendly personality. He picked up the piano from a residence in Mesa, brought it to Phoenix and placed it carefully in our home ensuring it was exactly where I wanted it to be. His pricing was very reasonable and I believe a piano is something that should be moved by a specialist -- spend the extra money and hire someone who knows about pianos! Thanks, Jim! read more

Jim and his partner were friendly and polite. They were on time and called 20min before coming over as promised. They treated our piano and home with care. Their rate was reasonable. I couldn't be happier with their service. read more

We recently used Max Piano Moving and had a fantastic experience. Responsive, prompt, professional and friendly - and very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for an experienced piano mover! read more

Jim was great! Picked up the piano when he said he would and was even a little early delivering it!! Very friendly and helpful. Even gave me info for a piano tuner! I would highly recommend Max Piano Moving! read more

Greg is very professional and has a great attitude. He has moved my piano twice from AZ to CA, but most importantly the piano arrives with no damage. His prices are competitive with other piano movers. read more

Excellent service, and a nice guy. Thank you for doing such a good job moving and setting up our piano. On time and pleasant to talk to. Fair pricing will recommend and use in the future! read more

Jim did an absolutely outstanding job! I've moved my baby grand from Missouri to California and Arizona and he is by far the most knowledgeable and professional piano mover I have had so far. He moved my 5'1" baby from a 3rd floor apartment with stairs to the home I'm in now about a year ago. My piano was in great hands the whole time. read more

We were in need of a piano move on short notice (same day) and had a pretty amazing experience with Jim! We called after responding to a Craigslist ad and needed to inspect the piano first, which Jim was very accommodating and understanding with. When it was time for the actual move, he arrived promptly and took great care of the piano during the transfer. Once back at our home, he gave us some very helpful information regarding the piano placement, when to tune, etc., all of which was much appreciated! On top of all of this, the price was very, very reasonable! I really couldn't recommend this company more - great job!! read more

I have used these piano movers multiple times & always had quick, efficient, and professional service. I would recommend Max Piano Moving to anyone. read more

These guys were fantastic! I needed help moving a piano from a family member's house to a friend's house, and even though I was out of town for the whole process, everything went so smoothly. Both my family member and my friend raved about how quick and easy the move was. Everyone was polite and friendly both over the phone and in person. I am so glad we decided to hire these movers instead of moving an item like this ourselves, it was definitely money well spent. read more

Don't look any further for a reliable, honest piano mover. We inherited a vintage baby grand and needed it moved from CA to Phoenix, AZ. Greg was reliable, on time, has great communication and gave a fair and honest quote. Highly recommend him for any of your needs. read more

The movers were fantastic, very quick and careful and very polite. Also very reasonably priced. Thank you Max.

Moving an upright piano from ground floor of one home to ground floor of another. Called for a quote, they were the lowest price. Scheduled the move for the next day. Jim called ahead as promised, arrived on time, and quickly delivered our piano. I would highly recommend their company. It was a smooth transaction. read more

I used Max Piano Moving to move an upright piano from an upstairs condo to ground floor house. I called quite a few piano moving companies in town, and Jim's quote was the cheapest by at least $100. He was very professional and friendly. He called me when he was on his way, arrived on time, and had the piano out of the condo and down the stairs in five minutes. They moved fast but they were careful, and made sure the piano was protected. I'm glad I used this company, I was very stressed about moving the piano but it turned out to be a very pleasant experience! read more

I could not be happier with Jim and the team at Max Piano Moving. The service was fast, affordable, and the quality and care with which they moved my very old piano was fantastic. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome. Thanks Jim for taking care of this important part of our family. It's much appreciated!! read more

Highly recommended! I resurrected my yelp.com account, just to write a review! I think we can all be a little anxious when it comes to having our pianos moved but not anymore! After observing other services for years (moving my mother's piano) I would say that Jim is the fastest AND safest experience I could have ever asked for! If I could describe Jim in one word, it'd be cordial! His can-did attitude is one that really made my day! Best customer service I could have ever asked for; loved his amount of communication and he delivered the piano at a faster rate than anticipated! He definitely over delivered my expectations! read more

Having moved twice in the last 3 years, it has been a wonderful experience to know that my German crafted piano was in the best of hands with Max Piano! In addition to moving my piano, including to my loft on the second floor, I have had MAX PIANO store my baby grand twice! Jim is personable, honest, reliable, and my piano has been cared for by the best of hands. I am completely comfortable with making recommendations for their services, and wouldn't think of having anyone else handle my most precious possession! Thank you Jim, and thank you to the fine people who work along with you to make it all happen the right way! read more

Needed the family piano moved from MN to CA. Did some research and found Greg willing to do it. Reasonable price, efficient move, TLC for the piano, nice guy.... Picked the piano up and delivered in days! I would highly recommend this service. Why look elsewhere??!! read more

I recently was given a piano and was scared to death on how I was going to be able to get it on the second floor of my house. Luckily for me I found Jim. They provided the best customer service and took such great care of the piano they were able to meet me before I went into work and had everything moved and set up within an hour and a half thank you so much for being great guys!!!! read more

What a shame that my review is probably going to be the worst review of all these posted on Yelp to date. Where should I begin? Dealing with two different families with a piano move has got to be difficult! however, Jim (pleasant) from this company finally reached out to me and we arranged the move via text and a call. I specifically said I will be at my home through 7:30 AM and then I will be gone for most of the morning. We settled on a time 6:30 AM ish., and then came the move (June 25th). Note - I set my alarm for 5:30 AM to wake up in plenty of time to wash my face wake up have a cup of coffee and answer the door for a set time at 6:30am (or very close to 6:30 AM) My dog started to bark at 5:40 and then I could swear I heard loud banging on my door at 5 freakin 45 bloody AM! couple minutes later it was more banging and door ringing the rapidfire type - apparently in case you didn't hear the first 10 rings I'm going to ring it 20 more times rudely just for extra insurance so you can actually feel like someone is in a hurry and is aggressive right outside your doorstep! By then, at that point I realized it was a piano mover or somebody that I hadn't dealt with because Jim was nice on the phone, so it couldn't have been him. I was angry, apprehensive about opening up that door and wanted my husband and dog around me before I did open the door in case something were to happen with this aggressive stranger at my flippin doorstep! let me remind, this is all happening near and around 6 AM on a Saturday morning - what the heck(actually I wanted to say hell). He said he was Greg. I asked who sent him because I didn't recognize the name and I also asked where the piano is being moved to, he couldn't really give me any answers as he sat on his vehicle seemingly snide. He tried to walk toward me with phone in hand to show me the appointment - my husband quickly shut the door because we were already in a heated conversation with him. we then got on the phone with my relative to confirm that this guy was legit and to tell Jim from that company he needs to know exactly what we're faced with at 6 AM this cannot be the typical manner in which a piano mover arrives at your doorstep to retrieve the piano and to deliver it to another location. In retrospect, I believe that since I am not a paying customer and simply the pick up point, that Greg decided I didn't need to have or feel customer service in any way that the paying customer was his focus - so wrong Max piano. Regardless of the time constraints to pick up a piano and dismantle it by yourself, it does not give anyone the right to bang on somebody's door and ring the doorbell impatiently. so you've made a hundred piano moves, it still does not make it so you cannot learn from experiences like this and correct your issues. DO NOT bang on anyone's door! Its that simple Max Piano. Lastly, I babysat that baby grand with love and attention for almost 3 years I believe, you would think that perhaps your relatives would recognize that care you put into it and like possibly thank you with Oh I dont know like maybe a coffee card or something? I trained my pitbull lab mix puppy to stay clear of that Beautiful piano, and she complied for three long years folks - that's caring and I tuned it for about $130. read more

I needed my piano moved urgently. I was out of my old house and already in the new, and the new owner was moving in, but my 5' baby grand was still in the old house. I called around, and other movers were able to get me on the schedule in the next few days. But Jim was able to come out immediately and accommodate me! Many other movers have a deadline to get you on the schedule. But Jim...he's just one guy! He does all of the work himself - from scheduling to moving and setting it all up. Some friends were helping me move my other belongings, and they were laughing about how they were standing around drinking beer while Jim and his one-man show moved an entire baby grand by himself. And it helps that he's also a really nice, sociable guy. Proof that he's a good, trusting person - he didn't count my payment, he just accepted that I was paying him the full amount (which is cheaper than the other moving companies, honestly), and put it in his pocket, didn't count it in front of me. I just think that speaks volumes to him as a human being. I've also worked with his colleague Greg who is also outstanding. I will only ever use these guys if I (heaven forbid) have to move my monstrosity again. Thanks, Jim!!! read more

We recently purchased a piano from a local piano store and Max Piano Moving was who they recommended for moving our piano to our home. I called Jim to set up a time for delivery and they showed up promptly to move it into our home. Super professional, handled the piano with great care and it literally only took 5 minutes. Awesome customer service! Thanks guys for making that easy! read more

I thought we could move our piano ourself, but found out late Saturday afternoon that we could not. With everywhere closed Sunday, and having to be out of the house by midnight on Monday, I began to feel extremely stressed. That is, until I spoke to Jim with Max Piano Moving. Within 3 hours he was at my door in North Phoenix picking up my piano. And he was affordable!!! Although I had gotten myself into a mess, Jim didn't take advantage of the situation. He had my piano in his truck in a few minutes and delivered shortly thereafter. I hope everyone uses this company! They are the best!!! read more

This company answered the phone, gave me a quote, showed up on time, and delivered the piano, and even tightened the bolts on the piano bench. I couldn't be more pleased with their level of professionalism, pricing, and would happily recommmend them. read more

These guys did a great job. Everything was moved safely, especially considering that stairs and a set of stairs were involved. Prices were much more reasonable than other companies! read more
