Shipping Cost from San Juan to Montreal

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.

Long-distance moves: Expect to pay $500–$800 for uprights and $1,000–$2,000+ for grand pianos. Mileage rates: Local moves cost $1.50–$2.50 per mile, while long-distance rates range from $2.50–$10 per mile.

Wrap the Piano in Blankets. Make sure that every part of the piano is wrapped and there are no parts that are exposed. Secure the Piano to the Side of the Truck. Don't let the piano slide around the truck. Secure it to the side of the truck using straps or another method that will ensure it doesn't move.
