"DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. My movers loudly insulted me every time they thought I was out of earshot. I was not. Appalling way to treat customers. I am behind disgusted."

Founded by E. Lee Jr. in 1925, South Hills Movers began as a local moving and storage company located in the South Hills of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. E. Lee Jr.'s son, Robert Lee, assumed control and management of the business and as Chairman, grew South Hills Movers into one of the nation's largest independent moving and storage companies. Today, Robert Lee's sons, Robert E. Lee (President) and Gary N. Lee (Executive Vice President) continue in the third generation of direct family management. Let our family move your family.
"I give South Hills Movers my strongest possible recommendation. From my first contacts with the office, through the estimate, through the move itself, everyone working at the company provided us with the highest level of courtesy and service. Aaron Smith and his crew were especially impressive, working very hard and efficiently while maintaining a cheerful and gracious disposition. We could not have asked for a better experience and are recommending the company to all our friends."

FAQs for piano moving projects in Pittsburgh, PA
Before your piano movers arrive, it’s a good idea to prep the piano for its journey to avoid damage, as well as clear a path to make the move as easy as possible. You can start by using bubble wrap and moving blankets to protect the keys, lids, and pedals. Drape moving blankets over the piano and secure them, if possible, to protect the surface from damage. Next, clear furniture and other obstructions out of the path from the piano to the door. It’s also wise to maintain a close spot for the moving truck to park out front.
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.
It is not necessary to tip piano movers, and workers from reputable companies generally won’t expect tips. However, if you’re pleased with the service and the movers are friendly and respectful, tipping can show your appreciation for how well the crew cared for what is likely a very expensive instrument. Tipping between $20 and $40 per mover is about average.
It is certainly possible to move a piano without hiring movers, but it’s not recommended. Not only will you need at least four people to lift and maneuver the piano, but getting it around tight corners and down flights of stairs might not be possible without the help of movers. Plus, pianos are exceptionally heavy and bulky, which means you and any helping hands are at risk of injury, as well as an increased risk of damaging your piano. Ultimately, it’s always worth it to call in a professional piano mover.
The average cost to move a piano is around $400, but your total will depend on the type of piano and your living situation—tight corners and flights of stairs will complicate the move. Moving an upright piano will be more affordable—around $250—and a full grand piano will cost closer to $550. Long-distance moves will bump all of these prices up and sometimes double them if the move is across state lines.
