"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal". Here at Martinson Piano Moving, we value unity, hope, love, and people. As we enter our Independence Day holiday, may we remember that our greatest strengths lie in our diversity and in our resilience. Let's celebrate by spreading kindness and joy!

Our offices are closed Friday, July 3rd through Sunday, July 5th. We are back to work on Monday, July 6th. See you then!

All this traffic makes me want a hotdog REAL BAD. Happy 250th Birthday, America! While most of our work is on pause for the holiday weekend, you can still expect HEAVY patriotic traffic on the roads. There are way too many local 4th of July celebrations to include on this map, but many will include road and ramp closures. A few things to know before you fire up the grill:

- It’s fire season! The best birthday gift you can give America is not setting it on fire. Follow city/county firework laws, make sure your tow chains aren’t dragging, and don’t park in tall, dry grass.

- Planning a ferry ride for the holiday weekend? So are nearly 400,000 other people over the next 4 days. The busiest sailings and longest wait times will likely be westbound (island-bound) Thursday-Friday and eastbound (mainland-bound) Saturday & Sunday. Follow Washington State Ferries for more info.

- All four lanes of I-90 across the Vantage Bridge will be open. But the usual holiday increase in traffic means travelers should expect delays, especially eastbound Friday and westbound Sunday.

- Going downtown for Seattle fireworks? In partnership with the city of Seattle, we are closing the Mercer Street off-ramp to I-5, along with the Boylston Ave/Roanoke Street and Lakeview Blvd exits around 10 p.m on Saturday. Plan ahead, because this could change.

- Take transit to the cookout! Check with your local public transit agencies for any holiday schedule or service changes. Amtrak Cascades passengers are encouraged to purchase tickets early and plan to arrive at the station one hour before departure.

- Expect heavier traffic as people head out on Thursday and Friday and come back on Sunday & Monday. The best way to avoid surprises? Check our app, website, and holiday weekend travel charts before you leave to find the best (and worst) times to travel on I-5, US 2, I-90 and at the border.

Have a happy and safe Fourth of July weekend. May your glizzies be grilled, your fireworks stay in the sky, and your trips go according to plan.

With gratitude and remembrance, our team wishes you a peaceful and reflective holiday.

Our rentals show up all over the place! Right now we have a lovely Yamaha C3 grand piano at Lincoln Theatre in Mt Vernon for the fabulous Centennial Showcase. You won't want to miss a full weekend of spectacular and showstopping events! Check it out!

A hundred years ago, the Lincoln Theatre opened its doors to the public with a grand celebration of the acts that would follow: the song and dance of live vaudeville performers, cartoons, and a feature length silent film accompanied by a rollicking score played on the Mighty Wurlitzer. And 100 years...
