Question 1

How much does it cost to ship furniture internationally?

Accepted Answer

The cost of international movers can vary from $1,500 to $18,000 or more. Keep in mind that these costs are influenced by factors like the size of your home, the services you require, the total weight and volume of your shipment, the shipment method chosen, and the distance you're moving.

Question 2

How expensive is it to ship a piece of furniture?

Accepted Answer

Shipping furniture is expensive, typically costing $300 to over $1,000 for cross-country moves, varying greatly by size, weight, distance, and service, with small items like chairs sometimes costing $50-$200 via parcel, while large sofas can be $300-$1,500+ using LTL freight or specialized movers. Expect higher prices for long distances, heavy items, and white-glove services, but save money with disassembly or freight consolidation.

Question 3

Is it worth it to ship furniture overseas?

Accepted Answer

If you've invested in high-quality, expensive furniture, replacing everything in your new country might be more costly than shipping it. Particularly if you own pieces like a custom-made sofa, luxury dining set, or high-end mattress, the cost to buy similar items abroad may far exceed the shipping fees.

Question 4

How much does it cost to have movers move a piano?

Accepted Answer

Piano mover costs vary widely, typically $200–$600 for local uprights, $400–$1,000+ for local grands, and $1,000–$2,500+ for long-distance moves, with bigger pianos (concert grands) and complex situations (stairs, crating, long distances) significantly increasing the price, potentially reaching thousands for international shipping. Key factors are piano type (upright vs. grand), distance, number of stairs, and special handling.

Question 5

Is a piano dolly better than hiring movers?

Accepted Answer

A piano dolly helps with short, flat moves but hiring professional piano movers is almost always better for safety, preventing costly damage (like a cracked soundboard or ruined floors), and handling stairs/tight spots, as they have specialized equipment, experience, and insurance for these heavy, delicate instruments. While a dolly saves money upfront, the risk of injury or significant repair costs usually outweighs the cost of professionals, especially for valuable or grand pianos.

Question 6

How to transport a piano long-distance?

Accepted Answer

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.
