Bears Moving Co. moves standard upright and spinet pianos in and out of Avalon — including around Avalon subdivision, East Lake Parkway, Cotton Fields Golf Club, and Ola High School. That covers consoles, studio uprights, player pianos, and digital pianos; we do not move baby grand or grand pianos. Licensed GA HHG #9320, four-wheel piano dollies, double-blanket wrapping, full floor protection, and cargo and liability insurance on every instrument.
Avalon is one of our regular service areas in metro Atlanta. From townhomes to single-family lots, Avalon sees a healthy mix of move sizes, and most jobs finish well within our hourly estimate. Bears Moving Co. (GA HHG #9320) brings licensed, insured crews who know the streets, buildings, and parking realities of Avalon — so your move day stays on schedule.
A Avalon piano job is scoped before it's scheduled — instrument type and age, doorway widths, stair-rise at both addresses, and parking. That's how the right crew size and equipment arrive the first time instead of being figured out on the porch. The addresses we see most often here are around Avalon subdivision, East Lake Parkway, Cotton Fields Golf Club, and Ola High School.
McDonough subdivision homes give us a driveway and a level threshold, so the crew size is set by what's inside — the landing turn, the hallway pivot, and the stair-rise in Historic McDonough Square and Eagle's Brooke homes. We walk the full route — truck to threshold, threshold to room — before the instrument moves, then lay runners over every floor it crosses.
Spinets, consoles, and full-size uprights are the common instruments across McDonough, with student instruments moving heavily each summer. The list runs from spinets and consoles through studio, full-size, and antique uprights to player pianos, digital pianos, and stage keyboards. Whatever it is, it stays upright on a four-wheel piano dolly, double-wrapped and strapped, with corner protection through every incline.
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.
What sets a McDonough flat rate is the instrument plus the path — a full-size upright with a flight of stairs costs more than a console rolling in on one level. A Avalon piano move is priced as a single flat number, never by the hour.
No hourly minimum, no clock, no adjustment at the end — you approve the price before move day and it holds even if the job runs long.
Three factors set it. First, the piano: spinet and console at the light end, studio and full-size uprights heavier, antique uprights and player pianos heaviest and most fragile, digital pianos simplest.
Second, stairs and access at both ends — flights and stair-rise, turns and landings, doorway widths, thresholds, elevator size, and the carry distance from the door to the truck; subdivision access is priced into the flat rate and never billed as a separate fee. Third, mileage between the two addresses, with no travel surcharge inside ZIP 30252, 30253.
Truck, fuel, blankets, shrink wrap, skid board, four-wheel piano dollies, floor runners, door-jamb protection, and full insurance are all inside the flat rate. There is no per-stair fee, no per-flight fee, no long-carry fee, and no elevator fee. Piano-only bookings are welcome, and a piano added to a household move rides with the same crew as its own flat piano fee.

Yes — Avalon is one of our regular upright and spinet piano areas in McDonough. Our crews know the access, doorways, and parking at Avalon subdivision, East Lake Parkway, Cotton Fields Golf Club, and Ola High School. We do not move baby grand or grand pianos.
No — our piano service covers uprights and spinets: consoles, studio and full-size uprights, antique and player pianos, and digital pianos. Grands of any size need leg-and-lyre disassembly and skid-board work we are not equipped for, so Avalon grand moves go to a specialty crew instead.
What sets a McDonough flat rate is the instrument plus the path — a full-size upright with a flight of stairs costs more than a console rolling in on one level.
Avalon piano moves are quoted as a flat rate, not by the hour — the price comes from the piano's type and size, the stairs and access at both ends, and the mileage, with equipment, floor protection, and insurance included.
Yes. McDonough subdivision homes give us a driveway and a level threshold, so the crew size is set by what's inside — the landing turn, the hallway pivot, and the stair-rise in Historic McDonough Square and Eagle's Brooke homes. We size the crew to the stair-rise and the instrument weight, and we never bill a per-stair or per-flight surcharge in McDonough.
Yes. Every Avalon 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.
Yes, but wait. Let the instrument sit 2-4 weeks in its new Avalon room so it acclimates to the humidity and temperature there — a tuning done before that rarely holds.
