Question 1

How much does it cost to move a piano in Alpharetta?

Accepted Answer

A heavy upright move within Alpharetta typically runs 3.5-4.5 hours with a three-mover crew; smaller consoles and spinets finish in 2.5-3. Alpharetta piano moves run at our transparent hourly rate with a 2-hour minimum — typically $300-$500 for an upright, depending on stairs and access. Truck, fuel, equipment, floor protection, and insurance are included, and there are no per-stair or long-carry fees.

Question 2

Can you move a piano up or down stairs in Alpharetta?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We move upright and spinet pianos up and down stairs in Alpharetta regularly. Alpharetta estate homes usually offer wide double doors and a level garage entry, which makes them among the easiest upright moves in the metro when the driveway pitch cooperates. Crew size scales with the instrument weight and the stair count; for heavy antique uprights or four-plus flights we bring a larger crew and stair-climbing equipment.

Question 3

Do you move baby grand or grand pianos in Alpharetta?

Accepted Answer

No. Bears Moving Co. moves standard upright and spinet pianos only — consoles, studio uprights, full-size and antique uprights, player pianos, and digital pianos. Baby grands, parlor grands, and concert grands require leg-and-lyre disassembly and skid-board handling that we do not offer, so we refer those Alpharetta moves to a specialty grand-piano mover.

Question 4

Is my piano insured while you move it in Alpharetta?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every Alpharetta piano move is covered by our full cargo and liability insurance under GA HHG #9320, and we can issue a Certificate of Insurance naming your building or HOA within 24 hours. Full Value Protection is available for high-value instruments.

Question 5

Can you move just the piano, or do I need a full move in Alpharetta?

Accepted Answer

Piano-only moves are a normal booking in Alpharetta — a lot of our piano jobs are a single instrument going across town or across the room. If you already have a household move scheduled with us, the piano folds into that same crew and hourly rate instead of costing extra.
