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. As experienced piano movers, 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.

Professional Piano Movers for Every Instrument

Eyring Movers began as a moving, packing, shipping, and storage company more than a century ago. Today, our piano movers bring that same experience to upright pianos, baby grands, grand pianos, and other specialty instruments, whether the piano is moving across the room, across town, or across the country.

Every piano move is different. Some involve a single flight of stairs; others involve tight turns, narrow doorways, or a grand piano that must be partially disassembled and moved on its side. We assess the instrument, the route out of your home, and the route into the new one before moving day so the process runs smoothly.

As professional piano movers, we help with:

Padding, wrapping, and securing the instrument

Stairs, tight turns, and narrow doorways

Grand piano disassembly and reassembly

Placement in the right spot at your new home

Climate-conscious 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.

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.
