Q:What is an 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: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.

Q:How to ship a piano out of state?

Rent a truck and move yourself. Hire professional movers. Rideshare or peer-to-peer shipping.
