Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to move a piano locally?
Local piano moving in the Bay Area typically ranges from $200 to $600 depending on the type (upright vs. grand), distance, and accessibility (stairs, narrow hallways, etc.). Contact us for a free, detailed quote specific to your situation.
Can you move a grand piano?
Yes. We move baby grands, parlor grands, and full concert grand pianos. Grand pianos require disassembly of the legs and lid, specialized wrapping, and careful transport on a piano board — all of which our team handles with expertise.
Do you move pianos up or down stairs?
Absolutely. Stairway piano moves are one of our specialties. We assess the stairway width, turns, and landing areas in advance and use the right equipment and technique for a safe move.
Will moving damage my piano or affect its tuning?
With proper handling, your piano will arrive in the same condition it left. However, we recommend waiting 2-3 weeks after a move before tuning, as the instrument needs time to acclimate to the humidity and temperature of its new environment.
How do I prepare my piano for a move?
Close and lock the keyboard lid, remove any items from the top of the piano, and clear a path from the piano to the door. Our team handles all wrapping, padding, and disassembly.
Are you insured for piano moves?
Yes. Joshua's Moving & Packing is fully licensed and insured (CAL-T/PUC# 0191363). Your piano is covered during transport.
How far in advance should I book a piano move?
We recommend booking at least one week in advance, though we can often accommodate shorter timelines. Call (415) 499-2093 for availability.
