Piano Moving

Moving a piano is not the same as moving regular furniture. Pianos are heavy, delicate, valuable, and difficult to maneuver without the right experience, equipment, and planning. Eyring Movers provides professional piano moving services designed to protect your instrument, your home, and your peace of mind.

Whether you need to move an upright piano, baby grand, grand piano, or another specialty instrument, our trained movers handle the process with care from start to finish.

Full-Service Local Moving Company

Eyring Movers began as a moving, packing, shipping, and storage company more than a century ago. Today, we continue to help customers with local moves of all sizes, from small apartment moves to full household relocations.

Every move is different. Some customers need help with a few large items. Others need a complete moving plan that includes packing, fragile items, heavy furniture, storage, or multiple stops. We take the time to understand your move before moving day so the process runs smoothly.

As a full-service local moving company, we help with:

Packing and unpacking

Loading, transportation, and unloading

Furniture placement

Storage when timelines do not align

Why Piano Moving Requires Specialists

Pianos are large, heavy, and fragile at the same time. That combination makes them one of the most challenging items to move:

Pianos are heavy: Even a standard upright piano can weigh several hundred pounds. Baby grands and grand pianos can be much heavier and require the right balance, lifting technique, and equipment to move safely.

Pianos are difficult to maneuver: Pianos are not easy to take apart like many furniture pieces. Doorways, staircases, tight hallways, elevators, and uneven surfaces can all create challenges. Our movers review the access points and plan the safest way to move the piano before lifting begins.

Pianos are delicate: Inside every piano are strings, hammers, pedals, keys, and internal mechanisms that can be affected by improper handling. Our team uses careful wrapping, padding, and moving methods to help reduce the risk of damage during the move.

Your home needs protection too: Piano moving is not only about protecting the instrument. Floors, walls, door frames, railings, and entryways also need to be protected. Eyring Movers uses the right tools and methods to help safeguard the property throughout the move.

Piano Moving Services We Provide

Upright Piano Moving: Upright pianos are common in homes, schools, churches, and studios. Our movers understand how to handle their weight, shape, and balance while protecting the piano and surrounding surfaces.

Baby Grand Piano Moving: Baby grand pianos require special care because of their size, shape, legs, pedals, and finish. Our team prepares the instrument properly and uses the right equipment to move it safely.

Grand Piano Moving: Grand pianos demand careful planning, proper handling, and experienced movers. We take the time to evaluate the move path, access points, and protection needed before the piano is moved.

In-Home Piano Moving: Need a piano moved from one room to another, upstairs, downstairs, or to a different area of the property? We can help reposition your piano safely without risking damage to your home.

Piano Moving With a Household Move: If your piano is part of a larger move, our team can coordinate the piano relocation with the rest of your belongings so the entire move stays organized.

Moving Process

How Our Piano Moving Process Works

01

Tell Us About the Piano

We start by gathering important details, including the type of piano, pickup location, destination, stairs, tight spaces, elevators, and any special access concerns.

02

Build the Moving Plan

Our team reviews the safest route, the equipment needed, and the best way to protect the piano and property before moving day.

03

Move and Place the Piano Carefully

Our movers lift, load, transport, unload, and place the piano with care. Once it reaches the destination, we position it where you need it.

Piano Moving in the Areas We Serve

Piano moves come with their own access challenges depending on where the home is located. Cleveland’s high-rises and older homes often mean elevators or narrow stairwells, Bay Village’s historic properties can have tighter doorways and uneven entryways, and North Olmsted and North Ridgeville homes often involve multi-level layouts with their own staircases to navigate. Eyring Movers brings the same careful piano handling and planning to every community we serve, adjusted to fit the home.

Testimonials

Our customers demand the best and we deliver.

Andy Passen

I suspect for most people, moving can be a highly stressful experience. It was for us, having to move our things in storage for three months while our new house was being built. Thank goodness for the great folks at Eyring. The way they handled our move at both ends including storing our furniture and countless boxes was professional and efficient from start to finish. Perhaps even more meaningful to us was the personal treatment we received from the crew that handled our move. These guys were terrific and definitely took much of our stress away. We give Eyring Movers our strongest recommendation.

Isabel D. Villanueva

I am more than happy to post this review about my experience with the entire Eyring Movers establishment. From end to end these people have customer service skills that shine and create an elevated customer experience during one of THE MOST stressful life events anyone experiences-moving your entire life in one day. Office staff member, Amanda, was my primary point of contact. She made reserving a date, taking inventory, follow up emails and phone calls in such a professional, kind, gracious and efficient manner that I did not worry one bit about being prioritized. Seamless and painless. Cheryl was amazing in her responsiveness to my phone calls and making time to ensure any communication on move in day was addressed promptly and professionally. White glove experience all around! Now for the team of movers who created the best move in experience for our family yet. And I have used Eyring about 4 times-that's how amazing they are. For this move we had 3 stops to make. A team led by Anthony O. that included Nate L., Trey B., Franciso S. and Max is who we spent our day with! Professional, kind, meticulous, patient, responsive, timely, and overrall experts in their fields. All of our belongings were handled with so much care. Work ethic on point and created such a positive environment while communicating with 7 of my family members. Never skipping a beat. Eyring Movers hit the mark with their entire team of people. Gold stars to each one of these people who I would look forward to working with again. ALSO-GOLD STAR TO EYRING MOVERS for honoring diversity in the workplace. We had the pleasure of working with a group of individuals who reflected different races and ethnicities. Are you moving? Call them, book them, support them and their team. Happy Holidays! Love and Health to all.

Trey, Mike, Shean, Dan, Max and Francisco were amazing and extremely efficient. I would definitely recommend this team. Great group of guys.

Rick Chiricosta

Eyring Movers did a great job for us. Made it easy to schedule, showed up right on time and the two members of the crew were very friendly and efficient and went out of their way to make the move of our furniture and other items very easy on us-the kind of service we were used to years ago but rarely see anymore (unfortunately). Highly recommended!

Deanna Reiter

We were very happy with the work or movers, Shean, Trey and Cisco, did for us. They were friendly and efficient. Most importantly they were awesome with my mom, who has Alzheimer’s and was moving to an assisted living facility. Overall it was a wonderful experience from the beginning to the end. Thank you!

This was my first time using professional movers, and it was amazing! I really appreciate everyone that I talked to throughout the process from start to finish- they made moving day easy! Dan and Mike were so friendly and fast, and I loved how careful they were to not only protect my furniture, but the effort to protect doors and walls from any scraping! I couldn't believe how quickly everything was done! I would give ten stars if I could 🙂

Margie Klare

This is my second time using Eyring Movers. When my son left for college, I decided it was time to do some purging and consolidating. Today, Anthony and Jeff moved a second load to my storage unit. Can't say enough good things about this company. From initially contacting them to watching the empty truck pull away, the team is a pleasure to work with. They are friendly, polite, hard working and ever so considerate and respectful of your home and belongs.
