How much does it cost to move a piano?
Moving a piano is incredibly difficult and not something we’d recommend for anyone to try that isn’t a professional. They’re heavy, oddly shaped, and maneuvering it to the moving truck can be a nightmare if you have to go down stairs or through narrow corridors. On top of that, the last thing you want is to irreparably damage your piano because of a simple mistake. You might be worried about the cost of moving a piano, but the risk of damage just isn’t worth the potential savings.
What would you rather pay? The cost of moving a piano from A to B or the cost of a brand new piano because you wanted to save a few bucks? Whether you’re going cross country or across town, leave it to the specialists and rest easy knowing that your piano is in good hands.

Our most common piano moves between major cities in Texas
Our pricing will depend heavily on the following:
- Type of piano: Our base prices are for upright pianos (Baby Grands and Grands add an additional $100.00 to $150.00 according to length).
- Distance: Piano moves within city limits, or nearer than 10 miles of city limits are going to have the lowest prices. City to City and across-state moves will be more expensive, naturally.
- Steps: Exterior steps at either the pick-up or destination location can add to the price of your move due to the equipment and complexity they add.
- Floors: If the instrument needs to go up or down floors via stairs, elevators, or heavy equipment lifts/cranes, additional costs will be involved.
- Expedited Service: For the lowest prices, pick up and delivery need to fall under the definition of window of opportunity for our normal schedule. If you would like expedited service, we may be able to accommodate based on our current workload, but it could add as much as 40% to the price.
What else goes into the piano moving cost?
Like we detailed above, the cost of moving a piano depends on the type of piano, the distance of the move, if there are stairs at the location, and many other factors. Larger pianos are more difficult to move because they’re (naturally) larger, heavier, and their shape can be troublesome depending on your location.
All of these factors make the move take longer because our moving specialists are going to take their time and be extraordinarily careful to make sure your piano ends up at the destination in the same condition it entered our hands.
