We often get questions about moving pianos as part of our normal moving service. To avoid any confusion we want to be clear that this is an non-standard service and does carry an additional charge.
Our moving company does move spinet and standard upright pianos. A standard upright piano is less than 48 inches tall. This excludes grand pianos, baby grands, and oversized uprights (more than 48 inches tall). Here is a good website to find out what style of piano you have http://www.bluebookofpianos.com/types.htm.
The rate for moving a standard piano with 2 or less stairs is $75 per location. Stairs are considered to be any change of height more than 4 inches. If moving up or down stairs there will be additional charges based on the obstacles at that location.
Often during a move, the change in temperature and humidity from one location to another can change the tune of your piano. We do not recommend leaving your piano in a truck or storage unit for more than 2-3 days as that may permanently warp the soundboard. Our service does not include piano tuning.
