Understanding the Piano Moving Market

What clients expect and what drives business growth in this category

Piano moving requires specialized equipment including a piano board (skid board), piano straps, and sometimes a piano dolly with locking casters. Upright pianos are laid back onto a piano board, strapped, and rolled; grand pianos require removing the legs, pedal lyre, and lid, wrapping the rim, and carrying the body on a piano board in a near-vertical orientation. Concert grands can weigh over 1,200 lbs and require 4–6 trained movers. Stairs require extra equipment and more movers.

Clients need experienced piano movers who understand the instrument's value and fragility, not general movers using blankets and brute force.

Licensing & credentials: No license required; many piano moving companies belong to the Piano Technicians Guild affiliate network; general cargo liability insurance required.

Piano Moving — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from clients booking Piano Moving services

How much does it cost to move a grand piano?

A baby grand move within the same building: $250–$400; across town: $400–$600; stairs add $100–$200 per flight; concert grand moves requiring special equipment or cranes cost significantly more.

Do I need to have the piano tuned after moving?

Yes — changes in temperature, humidity, and the vibration of moving causes the piano to go out of tune. Wait 2–4 weeks after moving for the piano to acclimate before tuning.

Can movers disassemble a grand piano's legs?

Experienced piano movers routinely remove the three legs and pedal lyre for transport — this is essential for doorway clearance and reduces the moving height for stability.

What can go wrong when amateurs move a piano?

Scratched floors from inadequate floor protection, damaged piano finish from blankets not secured properly, bent pedal hardware, cracked soundboard from dropping, and back injuries to movers.

How far in advance should I book piano movers?

Book 1–2 weeks ahead for local moves; 3–4 weeks for interstate piano transport. Specialty piano movers have limited availability compared to general movers.
