| You may be wondering why you would need to hire a professional piano moving company to move your piano, rather than using the household mover who is moving the rest of the contents of your house. The main reason for hiring a professional piano mover is that many household movers do not have adequate training or equipment to properly move a piano. |
| The average upright piano weighs between 400 and 900 pounds. Grand pianos can weigh between 650 and 1300 pounds. The value of a piano can vary from a few hundred dollars to $500,000s depending on the make, model, age and condition of the piano. The majority of piano moves involve moving the instrument through a tight space such as a small door frame or staircase. In some cases, the piano may need to be dismantled in order to get it out of your house. Using and experienced professional piano mover will drastically minimize the risk of damage to the instrument and to your home. |
| As a piano mover in the Dallas, Fort Worth area, McMurry Moving Company has come across many cases where a customer has hired a household piano mover to move their piano and has had to make an emergency call to us because the household mover could not get the piano out of his or her house. In other cases, we have received calls from customers who had hired a non-reliable piano mover because their price was much lower, and had to book an emergency move with us, because that piano mover did not show up to move their piano or call to explain why they were not there. |
| When you hire at professional piano mover such as McMurry Moving Company, you can expect a team of 2-3 piano moving experts to come to your home equipped with piano skids, moving pads, ramps, slings, and the knowledge of how to move your piano safely. Our piano moving experts at McMurry Moving Company will use special techniques to maneuver the piano out of your house. When the piano is put on the truck, it will be safely secured to the vehicle in order to avoid damage during transport. |
| In the most difficult moves, 4-6 people may be used. Generally when a piano is moved by someone other than a professional piano mover, this equipment, knowledge and these safety precautions are not employed. While hiring a professional piano mover does not completely eliminate the risk of damage, it will drastically reduce this risk. Furthermore, we will assess the situation and inform you if there is a chance of damage before he or she begins the move, and will give you the option of proceeding or not. McMurry Moving Company has over two decades of expertise in the piano moving industry. You can count on McMurry Moving Company to make your piano move safe, securely, and in a timely manner. |
