FAQ
Piano & Instrument Moving FAQs
How much does piano moving cost?
Piano moving cost depends on piano type (grand, upright, baby grand), distance, floor access, and any special requirements. In-city moves start from ₹15,000, while intercity piano moves can cost ₹30,000 – ₹1,00,000+ depending on distance and handling.
Do you use special equipment for piano moving?
Yes. Professional piano movers use piano dollies, ramps, air-ride suspension trucks, piano blankets, and custom crates. For grand pianos, a piano board and specialized straps are used to protect the instrument during transit.
Can pianos be moved internationally?
Yes. International piano moving involves custom-built wooden crates, climate-controlled ocean or air freight, customs documentation, and specialized handling at both ends. Costs vary by destination and instrument size.
Will the piano need tuning after the move?
In most cases, yes. Pianos are sensitive to temperature and humidity changes. After a move, wait 24-48 hours for the piano to acclimatize, then schedule a professional tuning. Some moves may require multiple tunings to stabilize.
Do you move upright pianos up and down stairs?
Yes. Upright pianos can be moved up and down stairs using specialized equipment like piano dollies and straps. Stair carries require extra manpower and may add to the cost. Always inform the mover about stair access in advance.
How are drum sets and guitars packed?
Drum sets are typically disassembled — drum heads removed, cymbals padded, and hardware bagged. Guitars are packed in hard cases with additional padding and bubble wrap. All small parts are labelled and boxed separately.
Is transit insurance available for musical instruments?
Yes. Most professional instrument movers offer optional transit insurance covering damage, theft or loss during transport. Coverage is based on the declared value of the instrument. Always verify coverage terms before booking.
How long does a piano move take?
Local piano moves typically take 3-6 hours including packing and unloading. Intercity moves take 1-4 days depending on distance. International moves can take 3-8 weeks via ocean freight or 5-10 days via air freight.
