Shipping Cost from Tallinn to Tbilisi

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.

Long-Distance Moving a Piano Cost Benchmarks Per-mile charges range from $2.50 to $10, depending on fuel prices, demand, and route complexity. A 500-mile move could cost anywhere from $1,250 to $5,000 just in mileage.

If your piano has any value left in it you probably don't want to move it yourself. It seems very silly to save a few hundred dollars on moving a piano, when the piano you're moving is worth $20000. It's also very important to keep in mind that any scratches or cosmetic damages make your piano lose value rapidly.
