I needed a piano moved from Towson to Taneytown, MD. They gave me a reasonable, fixed price for the move and moved it with care. Other companies I called gave me a higher “base cost” with the possibility of extra costs. One company with a higher minimum cost recommended 1st Class Moving for the piano move and I am so glad they did!

1st class was definitely 1st Class!!! They did amazing work from start to finish. Had a great interaction with the team setting up the move details and also the team handling our furniture/household goods on the day of the move. Would recommend them highly!

We had a complicated move with 2 pick up spots and 2 drop off spots and some tight stairs! And they packed me first! Every single person on the team was amazing and everything went super smoothly. Pricing was very fair. All details were handled. We were very happy with the move!

My sellers hired movers to relocate their larger furniture from Maryland to Delaware. The moving company they hired ended up being a complete scam! The company showed up at 8pm, the evening before closing, demanding $8000 MORE or they would not move their things! My sellers were beside themselves. I am so thankful…
