Piano moving quotes - How much does it cost to move a piano?
When planning a piano move in Montreal and surrounding areas, several factors influence the piano moving estimate.
- The distance of the move is one of the main factors determining the price of a piano move. The longer the distance, the higher the transportation costs.
- The size and weight of the piano also play an important role. The weight of the piano is a crucial factor influencing the total cost of the piano move. The heavier the piano, the more personnel and equipment are needed to move it safely. Uprights are generally lighter than grand pianos, which can influence the price. It is therefore important to inform the mover of the exact weight of the piano in order to obtain an accurate estimate.
If you own a heavy piano, you may need a specialized team and additional safety measures to ensure a safe move. In general, an upright piano weighs between 150 and 450 kilograms, while a grand piano can weigh between 200 and 600 kilograms.
In any case, it’s clear that a piano can be a very heavy instrument, which can pose a problem when it comes to transporting or moving it. Despite this, weight is a minor detail when you consider the magnificent sound the piano can produce and the passion this very special instrument can inspire in those who appreciate it.
- Difficult access is also a factor. Taking into account access constraints is essential when organizing the transport of your piano. At Demenagement Cargo Transport, we are attentive to every aspect of your environment, including narrow passages such as staircases and doorways, which can make moving your instrument complex. These peculiarities may require special equipment or even the use of a crane, thus influencing the total cost of the service.
We perform a detailed assessment to identify specific access challenges, such as navigating floors, curved spaces or tight passageways, to determine the precise number of specialized movers required.
- The type of instrument itself is another determining factor. A grand piano can be more difficult to move than an upright, which can also affect the cost of piano removal.
- Additional services such as specialized packaging, warehousing and insurance may also be charged in addition to the base price.

Transporting pianos with a crane truck
When stairs aren’t practical for pianos and bulky furniture, movers use a crane truck to move them. This means of transport is specially designed for heavy and bulky objects that cannot be transported in any other way.
However, this equipment alone is not enough. An experienced team is crucial to ensure that parts are handled with care and caution. Moving a piano is particularly complex because of its size and weight. That’s why professionals need to be trained to use cranes wisely.
Prices for this service start at $900, but are certainly worth the comfort of knowing your treasure is in good hands.

Piano tuning
After moving your piano, the crucial step of piano tuning after relocation becomes paramount to restoring its harmonic accuracy and timbre. Transport, even when carried out with the utmost care by specialists like Demenagement Cargo Transport, can affect the alignment and tension of your instrument’s strings.
Professional tuning not only restores the instrument’s original sound quality, it also contributes to its longevity. This post-move maintenance ensures that your piano continues to produce rich, precise melodies, essential for any musician concerned with the quality of his playing.
