Hockessin Movers, DE | Lewis Piano Movers

Licensed, insured Delaware piano and home movers serving Hockessin and the three counties — flat-rate, on time, every job.

Hockessin spreads across the leafy northern edge of New Castle County near the Pennsylvania line, where the land starts to roll into the chateau country and the homes get larger and set back off winding roads like Limestone and Lancaster Pike. This is some of the most established residential ground in the state: big homes on wooded lots, properties with circular drives, and a fair number of houses where a baby grand sits in a formal room and has been there for years. A Hockessin job often means a larger household with formal furniture and a piano that needs a real plan, on roads that wind through the rolling country rather than run on a grid. Spencer’s crew works the Hockessin and Pike Creek roads steadily, so the long set-back drives and the winding approaches near the line are familiar ground.

A Hockessin move is usually a big house and a careful carry. The larger lots often let the truck up the drive close to the door, which shortens the walk, though a long winding approach gets read first. Our crew takes the formal pieces and the heavy furniture, pads everything against the humid Mid-Atlantic air, and clears the household in one trip. When a formal room holds a baby grand or an upright, our piano crew belts it onto the board and rolls it out under the same written figure. One flat written rate, one Lewis crew, our own trucks, never handed off.

Hockessin Homes and the Rolling Country Toward the Pennsylvania Line

The set-back homes on the winding roads near the line often give the truck room up the drive, keeping the carry short, though a long or wooded approach gets walked first. A formal-room baby grand or a large household near Pike Creek, our crew maps the carry, plans the route through the rolling country, and locks the figure before your date.

“I rang several movers about my little Trolley Square studio, and Lewis was the only one that did not act like a single-room job was beneath them. Two movers had it all boxed, down the stairs, and unloaded across town in under three hours, taking care with my turntable and a stack of framed prints. The number they gave me held, with nothing extra slipped in at the finish. On a thin budget in this part of Wilmington, that honesty counted for a lot.”

“Four bedrooms in North Wilmington, a basement stuffed with years of accumulation, and a handful of heirlooms that had me on edge. Spencer toured the whole place before quoting anything, and on moving day the crew simply ran the show. They padded the doorways, eased a heavy china cabinet out without a nick, and put every carton in its proper room before leaving. Of the several movers we have used up here, these are the best by a wide margin.”

“Not one snag the whole day moving my Hockessin one-bed. The two movers were pleasant, treated my furniture gently, and finished sooner than the time I had set aside for it. With the cost written down ahead of time, nobody was angling for extra cash when the truck was loaded and nothing crept onto the total. Choosing a Delaware company over the big national outfits turned out to be exactly right.”

“Our Newark congregation was moving a pipe organ to the new sanctuary, and honestly I doubted it could survive the trip intact. Spencer's people studied the instrument before touching it, then dismantled it in an orderly way, tagging each component so none of it wandered off. The console was padded, crated, and steered through the doorways, then rebuilt on the far side of town. The whole congregation marveled at the patience and care they brought to it.”

Questions Delaware Neighbors Ask Spencer

We have a baby grand in a formal room of our Hockessin home. Can the Lewis crew move it with the rest of the house?
Yes, in one visit under one figure. Our piano crew belts the baby grand onto the moving board, eases it out of the formal room, and rolls it to our own truck alongside the household. A baby grand runs $540 to $880, listed on the written estimate before we start, so a Hockessin move holds its figure from the first walkthrough to the last box.
Our Hockessin home is set back on a long winding drive near the line. Can the truck get close?
Usually it can, and we read the approach first. The larger lots toward the Pennsylvania line often let the truck up the drive near the door, which shortens the carry. Where a long or wooded approach won't take the rig, our crew sets up where it sits safe and carries from there, and that call goes into the flat figure up front.
Does Hockessin's rolling country away from the highways make it a harder move to price?
No. Our crew runs the Hockessin and Pike Creek roads regularly, so the winding approaches near the line are familiar, and the drive folds into one flat written rate rather than a meter. We price the whole job before we lift anything, so the rolling country sits in the plan and your figure holds.
