The Best Piano Movers: Your Piano Handled With Care
Although they can be large and quite heavy, pianos are also delicate instruments. Without the right moving strategy, 2 to 4 movers, and the right equipment, you will not only be putting yourself in danger but may damage your piano or cause it to go out of tune. Serenity Moving Services takes piano-moving jobs very seriously. Our movers treat your piano with care and plan to avoid mishaps. Our attention to detail and caution make us stand out as the best option for moving your piano.
A piano is bigger, bulkier, and more fragile than most instruments or pieces of furniture. Therefore, we put extra planning, care, and consideration into the move. Our movers are well-equipped with the supplies needed for the move, including moving dollies, moving boards, moving blankets, tie-down straps, corner protectors, floor runners, and shoring beams. Our trained professionals know what equipment to use to move your piano safely.
Additionally, our team considers several factors while moving the piano, including the size of any rooms, hallways, or doorways it has to be moved through. Our movers have the three main qualities required to move an expensive item like a piano: patience, attention to detail, and maneuvering know-how.
We move pianos of all shapes and sizes with precision and care. Book your piano move with the best piano movers today!

Our Oklahoma Piano Moving Process
Here are the steps we take to make a piano safely:
1. Make a Piano Moving Plan
We measured the piano’s size to determine the truck size needed. We also measure the dimensions of any hallways, door frames, tight corners, or staircases. We make a strategic plan to get your piano in and out of each location safely. We also take the piano’s weight into account when determining what equipment and how many people are needed for the move.
2. Start to Pack
Using moving blankets and furniture pads, we start packing the piano. We make sure that all the doors are wide open or off their jambs. We also remove any loose or delicate parts, such as the piano keys, lids, legs, or pedals, and pack them separately. Then, we put down floor protection to protect hardwood floors, carpets, and any other flooring.
3. Lift, Load, & Transport
Our movers use lifting straps and dollies to handle the weight of your piano safely. We take full precautions to avoid sudden movements, bumps, or jolts that could damage the piano. For staircases, narrow hallways, or other areas, we use specialized equipment, including stair climbers or ramps. Once our movers load the piano into the vehicle, our team transports it to its new destination.
4. Unload & Reassemble the Piano
Once we arrive at a new destination, our movers carefully unload the piano. We reassemble any detached parts and place the piano in its new home.

Piano moving is quite expensive, ranging from $150 to $2,000 (per move). Larger pianos require extra care while moving because of their weight (approximately 300 to 850 lbs) and bulk. Sometimes, they are dismantled during packing, which costs extra. The extra cost has to be paid if the piano does not fit through stairways or doors and has to be transported through windows.
To move an upright piano:
- Secure its lid over the keyboard.
- Remove front legs if applicable.
- With the help of at least two people, place the piano onto the dolly and secure it using straps.
- Roll it to the moving truck
- Cover the piano with moving blankets.
- Secure it with straps.
Moving an upright piano requires at least 2-3 people. Two of the professional workers lift the piano, and the remaining one guides them when loading and unloading it to and from the vehicle. As the piano is moved through doors, hallways, and corners, the workers have to change their position accordingly.
