Shipping Cost from Kampala to Munich

Moving a piano costs roughly $150-$650 locally and $500-$2,500+ for long distances, depending heavily on the piano's type (grand is more), weight, distance, and obstacles like stairs, which add significant fees. Expect to pay more for larger pianos (concert grands) and complex moves involving many steps or tight spaces, potentially increasing costs to several thousand dollars, while simple upright moves are at the lower end.

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.

If your piano has any value left in it you probably don't want to move it yourself. It seems very silly to save a few hundred dollars on moving a piano, when the piano you're moving is worth $20000. It's also very important to keep in mind that any scratches or cosmetic damages make your piano lose value rapidly.
