Shipping Cost from Abidjan to Djibouti

On average, you'll pay between $2,000 to $5,000 for overseas shipping of an upright piano. This price typically includes basic packing, transportation, and standard insurance. However, costs fluctuate significantly based on the specific destination and chosen shipping method.

Shipping a piano across the country typically costs $1,200 to $4,500 for an upright or baby grand, but can range from $500 for shorter long-distance upright moves to over $2,000 for larger grand pianos, with big factors being distance, piano type (upright vs. grand), stairs, and special handling needs like cranes or crating. Costs increase for larger instruments, longer distances (often charged per mile), and difficult access (stairs, tight corners).

Shipping a Piano Overseas by Sea Freight Sea freight is a more cost-effective option, particularly for larger pianos or commercial shipments. Although it takes longer than air freight, sea freight provides an economical way to move a piano overseas while still ensuring secure transport.
