"I needed a move on short notice and Dacia was able to accommodate me. I'm disabled and needed packing as well as moving for a huge amount of books and other goods that accumulated over two decades in my prior apartment. Dacia added additional men when the scope of the job became clear. He went out of his way to make sure the move went well. I highly recommend Green Gorilla Movers."

Piano Moving questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is absolutely worth it to hire piano movers. Pianos are heavy and bulky, which makes them very challenging to move safely and without causing damage to the piano and your home. Hiring piano movers is especially worthwhile if you need to move the instrument up or down staircases, as that can put you and your helpers at risk of serious injury. Overall, the price you’ll pay to hire a professional piano mover pales in comparison to the damage you could do to your piano or your home if you attempt the move yourself.

If you hire a professional and reputable piano mover, you should have to do minimal prep work. Most movers will pack and protect your piano as necessary, so you don’t need to worry about that. Instead, use the following tips for a smooth relocation:

  • Get children and pets out of the house for the day to avoid accidents and distractions

  • Clear a wide path from your piano to the exterior

  • Prepare means of propping open doors leading outside

  • Pull the moving vehicle up to the home’s exit

It's typically best to hire movers who specialize in moving pianos because moving them often requires specific equipment and finesse, especially when it comes to grand pianos. However, some standard moving companies have experienced piano movers on their team, so it never hurts to call a company and ask about their piano moving expertise.

Traveling with your automobile over short distances when moving is typically less expensive than shipping it with a transport company. However, consumers start to break even at around 500 miles. It's typically less costly and worth shipping your car with a professional transport company if the distance you're going exceeds 500 miles.

Depending on the type of expense, it is possible to deduct moving costs on your taxes. For example, you can deduct for packing, crating, insurance, in-transit storage, and using a trailer. However, you cannot deduct expenses such as moving furniture, security deposits, and home buying and selling expenses.
