A piano is not just another piece of furniture. It is heavy, top-heavy and delicate at the same time, and it often carries years of family memories. Ciao Moving & Storage provides professional piano moving in Miami and across South Florida, with trained crews, the right equipment and careful planning for every stairway, doorway and elevator.
Whether you are moving an upright across Coral Gables, a baby grand into a Brickell high-rise or a concert grand to a home in Boca Raton, we protect the instrument, your floors and your walls from pickup to placement.
Miami Piano Moving Experts Ready to Help
Every piano move starts with a free estimate. Tell us the type and size of your piano, both addresses, and any stairs, tight turns or elevators, and we will plan the move and give you a clear price.
On moving day, our crew wraps the piano in thick padding, removes legs and pedal lyre on grands, and secures it to a piano board with straps. We use dollies, ramps and stair techniques suited to the instrument, load it upright and secured in the truck, then unload and place it exactly where you want it in your new home.
We recommend having your piano tuned two to four weeks after the move, once it has adjusted to the new room’s temperature and humidity.
Types of Pianos We Move
We move every common type of piano in homes, condos, churches, schools and studios across South Florida:
- Upright and console pianos: The most common home pianos. Heavier than they look and easy to tip, so we always move them with a board and straps.
- Baby grand pianos: Legs and lyre are removed, and the piano is moved on its side on a padded piano board.
- Grand and concert grand pianos: Larger crews and extra planning for doorways, stairs and turns.
- Digital pianos, studio pianos and organs: Packed and moved with the same care as acoustic instruments.
Piano Moving Across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach
Our piano movers work throughout South Florida, from Homestead to Boca Raton. We move pianos within the same city, between counties and as part of a full household move. Areas we serve include:
- Miami-Dade: Coral Gables, Miami, Brickell, Miami Beach, Coconut Grove, Doral, Aventura, Kendall and Homestead
- Broward: Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Davie, Plantation and Coral Springs
- Palm Beach: Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Deerfield Beach area
Stairs, Condos and High-Rise Piano Moves
Many South Florida pianos live on the second floor of a townhome or high up in a condo tower. We measure doorways, stair turns and service elevators before moving day, and we bring a crew size that matches the piano and the path.
For condo buildings, we provide the certificate of insurance your association requires and work within its reserved elevator times. If a piano will not fit a service elevator, we will tell you during the estimate, not on moving day.
How Much Does It Cost to Move a Piano in Miami?
Piano moving is priced on the job, not a flat rate, because the same piano can be a simple move or a complex one depending on access. The main factors are:
- The type and size of the piano (upright, baby grand, grand)
- Stairs, tight turns and long carries at either address
- Elevator access and condo time windows
- Distance between the two addresses
- Whether the piano needs storage before delivery
