I have an upright piano (about 25 years old, roughly 200kg) that needs to move from my living room to my study on the same floor. I'm worried about damage to both the piano and my wooden floors. Should I hire a specialist or can general moving help do this safely? What's a realistic budget?
✓ Accepted answer
Piano moving is specialized work—don't use general movers alone. You need someone trained in handling heavy, delicate instruments. Expect €150–€300 for a single room move in Amsterdam, depending on stairs, tight corners, and floor protection needed. Price varies by: piano type/weight, distance, access difficulty, and whether protective equipment (blankets, dollies, floor guards) is included. For an upright, one experienced person often suffices; grands need two. Always ask if they're insured for piano damage.
