Question 1

What is an average cost to move a piano?

Accepted Answer

Moving a piano costs about $400 on average. However, costs vary depending on several factors, such as cost per mile (the starting price is about $50), the type of piano (a grand piano is typically high-priced), height and weight, ease of access, and the need for disassembly and reassembly.

Question 2

Is a piano dolly better than hiring movers?

Accepted Answer

Lifting such a monstrous piece of equipment is back-breaking work, even if you're only lifting it onto a dolly. Many times, confident homeowners attempt to lift a piano and not only damage the instrument but injure themselves. Next time, err on the side of caution: let professionals handle the heavy lifting instead.

Question 3

How to transport a piano long distance?

Accepted Answer

To move a piano long distance, hire professional piano movers for the safest, most reliable option, as they have specialized equipment and expertise. If DIY, prepare by locking the lid, wrapping it in blankets, securing it to a piano dolly/skid board, using lifting straps, and strapping it securely in a truck with a ramp, avoiding lifting by the legs.

Question 4

How much does it cost to ship from Japan to the US?

Accepted Answer

Shipping from Japan to the US varies widely, from around $20-$40 for small, light items (under 1kg) via airmail/First-Class, to potentially hundreds for large or heavy packages, with costs depending on weight, size, speed (Airmail, EMS, Surface), and courier ( Japan Post, Yamato, FedEx ), with airmail taking 5-10 days and surface taking 1-3 months. Expect to pay around ¥1,200-¥2,800 for 500g-1kg, but it increases significantly with weight.

Question 5

Can I ship things from Japan to the US?

Accepted Answer

If you need to ship to the US, you should use Yamato, DHL, UPS, FedEx, or some other private carrier. If that is not practical, refund your customers and cancel their orders. You can't control the USPS and this is not likely to get cleared up soon.

Question 6

Is Japan suspending shipments to the US?

Accepted Answer

Japan, Australia, Taiwan and Mexico have joined a growing list of places suspending some parcel shipments to the United States following the implementation of new rules under President Donald Trump's administration that will end tariff exemptions.
