Q:What is the average cost to move a piano?
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.
Q:How much to move a piano 500 miles?
Moving a piano 500 miles typically costs between $700 to $2,500+, depending heavily on the piano type (upright vs. grand), size, weight, accessibility (stairs add significant cost), and if crating or climate control is needed, with per-mile rates around $2.50-$10 plus base fees, plus extra charges for stairs, distance, and special care.
Q:Is a piano dolly better than hiring movers?
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.
