    A great company with professional crew. In these difficult times they were considerate of our home, Social Distancing and wearing masks at all times. Great Job! They moved our beautiful YAMAHA C5 from Corona, CA to Bear Valley Springs, CA and it was still in tune!

    BEWARE. Our experience with Encore Piano was not just frustrating, it was completely unacceptable. We hired Encore Piano to move a piano from a friend’s residence to our home on May 28th. When we first reached out for a quote, the company only asked for the piano size - there was no intake process, no checklist, no confirmation, nothing. We had no idea there was additional information we were expected to provide, nor did anyone explain that to us. We trusted that a professional moving company would know how to guide the process and collect the necessary information. That trust was completely misplaced. When the movers arrived, they immediately told us they had been misinformed about the size of the piano; it was actually twice as large as what they were told by their management. This was shocking, as you would think as a professional piano moving company they would come prepared to properly handle such a fragile piece. You could tell the movers were upset with their manager as a result - they only had two guys to complete the job when the piano size really required three to safely move the piano to its final destination. The movers also exclaimed they were unaware of stairs at both the pickup and drop-off locations, which they claimed changed the scope of the move and ultimately the cost. Again, no one from the company had ever asked us about stairs. We had assumed that all costs to properly complete the move were included in our quote. To make matters worse, the movers told us that the total cost for the move was $350, even though we had already confirmed directly with the manager that our quote was $300. This was the first sign of how disorganized the company was. We felt like we were being taken advantage of from the moment they arrived. When we called the owner on the spot to resolve the issue, She acknowledged the miscommunication and told us they would need to come back another day with additional personnel to complete the move for an additional $500.  Although this was frustrating they couldn’t resolve the issue that day, we were understanding and ultimately made the decision to move forward at that price and rescheduled the move. But the day before the confirmed rescheduled move, the owner called us back in an incredibly rude, combative tone, flat-out claiming she never provided that quote. When we reminded her of the conversation, she put us on hold, then came back saying she did provide that quote, but that it only applied if the move had been completed the same day. This detail was never mentioned in our original discussion and her sudden change of story and contradiction, within a matter of seconds, made it painfully obvious that she was making things up to cover for their mistakes and disorganization. What was most infuriating is that the owner offered zero solutions. Even though this entire issue was caused by their own lack of process and internal mistakes, she made no effort to resolve her mistakes. Instead, she was aggressive, dismissive, repeatedly interrupted us, yelled over us, and ultimately hung up on us. We remained calm and respectful throughout the phone call, despite how blatantly unprofessional and unacceptable her behavior was in those moments. Honestly, it was laughable. This was their mistake from the very beginning, and looking back her defensiveness and twisting the truth was a tell-tale sign of why her business is managed so poorly. That being said, we are incredibly RELIEVED we are not trusting our family heirloom piano in Encore Piano’s hands. We would happily pay more to work with a company that is thorough, professional, and actually capable of handling a move of this kind. The last thing anyone should risk is compromising their piano with a company that is as disorganized and careless as Encore Piano. We absolutely DO NOT RECOMMEND this company under any circumstances.

    Encore did a fantastic job delivering and installing a grand piano. The team (Dan, Rob, and Chico) moved it up one story of stairs, and carefully engineered a way to get past two 90 degree turns in the process. I commend them for their professional work.

    Thank you Will at Pianos Direct for providing me with their number. We needed our piano delivered ASAP. I called just in time on Friday, and was able to be included in their Monday pickup and Wednesday delivery. Considering the distance they had to drive to pick it up and drop it off they are soooop worth every penny! Honestly, it wasn't a bad price at all. We had received similar quotes from other companies but they were NOT as professional. Go with this company!!! They are exceptional 👏!!!

    What a super company! VERY well priced, professional, informative, and extremely careful with my Baby. I was dealing with a death in my family and had to have the piano moved from Nor Cal to So Cal. Matt and Edward helped me in Nor Cal and they were wonderful. I don't have names for the delivery, but also wonderful. I am recommending this company to EVERYONE who needs their piano or organ moved. One estimate was $4000 from another company. Ridiculous. So go with Encore, save money, and be assured your pianio will be treated like the precious instrument that it is.

    Specializing exclusively in piano moving, this La Mirada-based company handles the transport of pianos for residential and commercial customers. Because pianos require equipment, technique, and care that general moving companies may not provide, a dedicated piano moving service addresses a specific and practical need for households and venues that own these instruments.

    Located on Canary Ave in La Mirada, the business is positioned to serve residents throughout the surrounding communities of Los Angeles and Orange County. Homeowners relocating within the area, families moving a piano between residences, schools, churches, and performance spaces that need an instrument transported are among the types of clients this kind of service typically accommodates.

    Piano moving involves navigating staircases, tight doorways, and varying floor surfaces while protecting an instrument that is both heavy and structurally sensitive. A company focused solely on this work uses specialized equipment suited to the task rather than standard household moving gear. For La Mirada residents who own an upright, grand, or baby grand piano and need it moved locally or regionally, Encore Piano Moving offers a service category that is otherwise difficult to source through general movers.
