Can I move a piano by myself?
Moving a piano is very difficult. Before you try to do it yourself, you might want to consider hiring professional movers to do the job. This is particularly true if you need to move the piano down a flight of stairs, into an elevator, or have tight spaces to navigate.
How much money does it cost to move a piano?
The cost to move a grand piano is between $250 to $650 locally and $1,000 to $2,000 for a long-distance job. It weighs between 600 to 1,200 pounds. For proper transportation, dismantle it first.
What type of dolly is needed to move a piano?
Pianos should always be placed on top of a special 4-wheel piano dolly either on their feet (the piano's bottom) or on one of their sides.
Is it worth moving a piano?
Strongly consider using a piano moving company if you own a grand piano or need to move your piano up or down a flight of stairs. In the end your DIY piano move could end up costing you more than it would have been to hire movers in the first place.
