Shipping Cost from Hamburg to Manchester

Piano mover costs typically range from $200–$400 for local uprights and $1,000–$2,000 for long-distance, but prices vary significantly by distance, piano type (grands cost more), stairs/obstacles (add $5-$10 per step), special equipment, and insurance, with some basic moves starting at $150 and complex moves exceeding $5,000, notes. Expect additional fees for difficult terrain, narrow spaces, or rush jobs, and factor in post-move tuning ($125-$225).

A grand piano (weighing between 500 to 1,300 pounds) will cost substantially more to ship than an upright piano (typically weighing 300 to 900 pounds). For instance, shipping a piano internationally can cost up to $5,000, with costs varying based on the type and size of the piano.

Piano transport costs within the UK typically range from £3.00 to £6.00 per mile. Short-distance moves (under 50 miles) usually cost £3.50–£6.00/mile, while longer-distance services generally fall around £3.00–£4.50/mile, with an average rate of about £4.00/mile.
