Reliable Piano Moving Services in Chicago, IL
Moving a piano is not a job for a couple of friends and a rented dolly. Pianos can weigh hundreds of pounds (some grands top 1,000), and the weight is not evenly distributed. Add in the interior mechanics, which are surprisingly sensitive, and you have a recipe for damage to the instrument, your floors, and your back if the move isn’t done right.
Our piano movers in Chicago handle upright pianos, spinet and console pianos, baby grands, and grand pianos, whether you’re moving from a third-floor walk-up in Lincoln Park, a condo in the West Loop, or a single-family home in Oak Park. We know how to plan the route, protect your floors and walls, and get your piano through Chicago’s trickiest entryways.
Moving other furniture along with your piano? We can take care of that too. Our team offers residential moving, furniture moving, and packing and unpacking, so your whole home can move in one smooth trip.

Why Hire Professional Piano Movers?
Pianos are one of the most difficult items to move safely. Between the sheer weight, the delicate internal parts, and the finish that scratches if you so much as look at it wrong, a DIY piano move can go sideways fast. And in Chicago, where staircases are steep, hallways are narrow, and street parking is limited, there’s very little room for error.
Our crews use proper padding, securing straps, and piano boards to protect your instrument, your floors, and your doorways. We take our time, communicate clearly, and plan each step so nothing is left to chance.
Hiring professional movers means a safer move for your piano and for everyone carrying it.
Piano Moving Services
Careful Handling for Every Type of Piano
Our piano moving services cover the full range of instruments, from compact spinets to full-size grands. Here’s what we can help with.
- Upright and Console Pianos: Heavy and top-heavy, these pianos need careful balancing and secure strapping to travel safely.
- Baby Grand and Grand Pianos: These require partial disassembly, specialized boards, and a coordinated crew to move safely.
- Stair Moves: Have a piano on the second floor or in a basement? We have experience moving pianos up and down Chicago’s stairs.
- Local Moves: Whether you’re moving across town or out to the suburbs like Evanston, Naperville, or Schaumburg, our local moving services keep your piano safe the whole way.
A quick tip: after your move, give your piano a little time to settle into its new environment before having it tuned. Moving can shift tuning, so many piano owners schedule a tuning a few weeks after the move.
