Question 1

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

Accepted Answer

High-rise upright moves in Buckhead usually run 2.5-3.5 hours; a heavy player piano out of a tower on a tight elevator window is a 3.5-4.5 hour, three-mover job. Buckhead 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 Buckhead?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We move upright and spinet pianos up and down stairs in Buckhead regularly. Buckhead towers hand out tight freight-elevator windows and enforce them, so we arrive with the skid board, dollies, and ramp already staged instead of unloading equipment on the clock. 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 Buckhead?

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 Buckhead moves to a specialty grand-piano mover.

Question 4

Is my piano insured while you move it in Buckhead?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every Buckhead 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 Buckhead?

Accepted Answer

Piano-only moves are a normal booking in Buckhead — 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.
