Shipping Cost from Casablanca to Riyadh

Upright Piano Shipping Costs Upright pianos, being more compact, cost less to ship internationally. 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.

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.

Transporting a piano involves careful preparation (securing the lid, wrapping in blankets), using specialized equipment like a heavy-duty dolly or skid board, getting plenty of help (3-4 people minimum), and using lifting straps to safely move it onto a truck, securing it well for transit, and potentially disassembling parts like legs for grand pianos. Always protect it with moving blankets, measure doorways, and if stairs are involved, use a stair dolly or board for safety, prioritizing a level surface when moving.
