Bears Moving Co. is a licensed Georgia piano moving company (GA HHG #9320) moving standard upright and spinet pianos throughout Dallas — Dallas core homes, Seven Hills homes, and Highway 92 corridor homes. That includes consoles, studio uprights, player pianos, and digital pianos. We do not move baby grand or grand pianos. Four-wheel piano dollies, double-blanket wrapping, full floor protection, and cargo and liability insurance on every instrument.
Piano work in Dallas is subdivision work — Dallas core homes, Seven Hills homes, and Highway 92 corridor homes. Getting to the door is simple; the flight, the landing turn, and the hallway pivot inside are what set the crew.
Most Dallas homes offer a level garage or front-door entry, so the interior stair between the entry and the piano's room — not the driveway — usually decides the crew size around Dallas core and Seven Hills. We choose the skid board or the dolly after seeing that stair, not before.
Most Dallas households own a console or a studio upright, and student instruments cluster around the summer move season. We move spinets, consoles, studio uprights, full-size and antique uprights, player pianos, and digital pianos and stage keyboards. Every instrument rides upright on a four-wheel piano dolly, double-blanket wrapped with corner protection and strap control on every incline and stair flight.
We move standard upright and spinet pianos — including consoles, studio uprights, player pianos, and digital pianos. We do not move baby grand or grand pianos. If you have a baby grand or grand, we will tell you that straight away and point you toward a specialty grand mover rather than take a job we are not equipped for.
Before we book a Dallas piano move we ask for the instrument type and approximate age, every doorway it has to clear, every stair-rise at both ends, and the parking and driveway situation. That conversation sets the crew size and equipment — we don't guess on your front porch.
Dallas flat rates track two things: how heavy the piano is and whether it has to climb. A level console move is the low end of the range. Pianos in Dallas are quoted flat, not hourly. There's no minimum block of hours and nothing ticking while the crew works: the number you approve beforehand is the number you pay, whether the move is quick or slow.
Three factors build that number.
Factor one is the piano itself. A spinet or console is the lightest and simplest instrument we handle; a studio or full-size upright weighs more and needs a bigger crew; an antique upright or player piano is heavier still, often past 900 pounds, and carries the most fragile casework. Digital pianos and stage keyboards price at the low end.
Age, height, and weight all move the rate, which is why we ask what you have before we quote.
Second comes access at both addresses. Flights and stair-rise, landing turns, hallway and doorway widths, thresholds and porch steps, elevator size and its reservation window, and the walk from the door to the truck all get counted on a Dallas move. Level entry with the truck at the door is the cheapest configuration; a walk-up with a tight turn at the top is the most expensive.
The last factor is how far the piano travels. A few miles inside Dallas prices below a cross-metro run, and no travel surcharge is added on top of mileage anywhere in our standard service zone.
The flat rate already covers the truck and fuel, blankets and shrink wrap, the skid board, four-wheel dollies, floor runners, jamb protection, and full insurance. Nothing is added for stairs, flights, a long carry, or an elevator. If you are also booking a household move, the piano rides with the same crew on the same day as its own flat piano fee on top of the household move.
Insurance is not an add-on: every Dallas instrument moves under our cargo and liability coverage (GA HHG #9320). Buildings and HOAs get a Certificate of Insurance within a day, and for vintage or high-value uprights we walk through Full Value Protection before anything is signed.
Plan on having the piano tuned after the move. Any instrument that changes buildings needs 2-4 weeks to acclimate to the new room's humidity and temperature before a tuning will hold. We set the piano in its final position, level it, and check the casters so it's playable the same day — the tuning is the only thing left.
We move pianos throughout Dallas core, Seven Hills, and Highway 92 corridor and the rest of Paulding County, with no travel surcharge inside our standard service zone.

Dallas flat rates track two things: how heavy the piano is and whether it has to climb. A level console move is the low end of the range. Every Dallas piano move is quoted as a flat rate rather than by the hour, based on the piano type and size, the stairs and access at both ends, and the mileage between addresses.
Truck, fuel, equipment, floor protection, and insurance are included in that price, and there are no per-stair or long-carry fees.
Yes — most Dallas piano jobs involve at least one flight. Most Dallas homes offer a level garage or front-door entry, so the interior stair between the entry and the piano's room — not the driveway — usually decides the crew size around Dallas core and Seven Hills.
The stair-rise and the instrument's weight decide how many movers come; four or more flights, or a 900-pound antique, means a bigger crew and specialized equipment.
We don't. Uprights and spinets only — console, studio, full-size, antique, player, and digital instruments. A baby grand or concert grand has to come apart at the legs and lyre and travel on a skid board, which is a different specialty, so we point Dallas customers to a grand-piano mover.
Yes — cargo and liability coverage applies to every Dallas instrument we touch, under GA HHG #9320. Buildings and HOAs get a Certificate of Insurance inside a day, and high-value pianos can be moved under Full Value Protection.
A single piano is a complete job on its own in Dallas, and we book those every week. If you're already moving a house with us, the piano goes on the same truck with the same crew and is quoted as a separate flat piano fee.
