Quick answer: Piano moving in Los Angeles with Best Movers LA costs a flat written price: uprights from $250, baby grands from $400, full grands from $550, including padding, skid board, stair work and placement. Hillside access and long carries are priced into the quote — never invented at the door.

How we move pianos

Pianos are not furniture, and we don't move them like furniture. Uprights travel strapped to a piano dolly with full-body padding. Grands are disassembled properly — lid, lyre and legs removed — wrapped, and boarded on a piano skid. Stairs get ramps or controlled stair-walks with a dedicated spotter. Your piano is the only item the crew handles during the carry.

The LA-specific part

Hollywood Hills steps, Silver Lake stair streets, Palisades canyon drives — piano access in LA is half the job. Send us photos of the path at both ends and the quote covers everything: crew size, equipment, and any shuttle or crane day if a hillside grand truly needs one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you move a piano up or down stairs?

Yes — stairs are most of our piano work in LA. We use ramps or controlled stair-walks with a spotter, and the stair price is in your written quote.

Do you move pianos as part of a regular move?

Yes, at a reduced flat add-on to your hourly move — cheaper than booking a separate piano-only job.

Are you insured for piano damage?

Yes — full cargo coverage applies, and full-value protection is available for high-value instruments. We also photograph condition before and after.

Can you store a piano?

Yes, in our climate-controlled facility from $99/month — common during remodels and staging.

Do you tune pianos after moving?

No, but allow 2–3 weeks for the instrument to acclimate, then book any local tuner; moving itself rarely knocks a well-maintained piano far out of tune.
