How piano moving works with us
Piano relocation, step by step
Piano-Specific Written Quote
We quote by piano type (upright, baby grand, grand), floor count, stair width, and destination setup. Tell us early if access is tight so the quote covers it.
Confirm Access & Equipment
Before move day, we check door widths, stairwell clearances, and elevator dimensions, and stage the equipment: piano boards, ramps, and harnesses.
Pad-Wrap, Board, and Secure
Grand pianos are disassembled (lid, legs, pedal lyre) and each component padded. Uprights are padded, boarded, and strapped.
Placement, Leveling & Reassembly
The piano is placed at your chosen spot, leveled, and reassembled. Many technicians suggest waiting a few days before tuning so the piano can adjust to the room. Your technician's call.
