SALT LAKE CITY UT PIANO MOVERS
At Wasatch Moving Company, we understand just how much you cherish your piano. Not only does it fill your home with music, it may be an heirloom that’s been in your family for years or something you hope to pass down to your children. All types of pianos, including upright pianos, baby grand pianos, and grand pianos, deserve the same level of care and respect during a move. When choosing the best Salt Lake City piano moving company, you need to be able to trust that your piano will be moved with the right techniques and equipment to avoid damage to your fragile instrument.
Did you know Utah, and Salt Lake City in particular, has more pianos per capita than any other state? Utah’s love of the piano goes back to the city’s Mormon roots and the church’s widespread use of music in worship as well as Daynes Music, one of the country’s oldest family-owned businesses that has played a role in fostering the region’s love of music. Pianos are certainly one of the most popular instruments but they’re also one of the most delicate. The average piano has more than 10,000 moving parts which can easily be damaged with improper moving techniques. Trust the dependable Salt Lake City piano movers at Wasatch Moving Company to ensure your piano makes it safely to your new home!
Why Hire Professional Salt Lake City Piano Movers?
Even a seemingly simple move can be a time-consuming and stressful experience. You may spend weeks packing up your home only to face the physical strain of hours of heavy lifting while navigating narrow hallways and stairways. If you need to move something heavy or delicate, relocating becomes that much harder. Pianos fall under both categories! Your piano isn’t just a costly investment; it may also weigh up to 800 pounds and have 10,000 moving parts. Without the help of a professional Salt Lake City moving company, you risk not only damaging your piano but also your home and even yourself!
Moving a piano isn’t a DIY job; it requires a great deal of expertise and the right equipment. When a piano is tilted incorrectly, bumped the wrong way, or loaded onto a truck without good shock absorbers, it can easily suffer damage to delicate internal parts! Moving an instrument that weighs hundreds of pounds can also be dangerous and lead to serious injuries to yourself, pets, or kids. While you may save money by skipping the services of piano moving companies in Salt Lake City, just remember that piano repair can easily cost hundreds!
Salt Lake City Piano Movers Use Specialized Equipment & Training
One of the most important reasons to choose a reliable piano moving company in Salt Lake City rather than moving your own piano is the specialized equipment and expertise it takes to safely move a heavy instrument. Despite a piano’s weight, it’s a very delicate instrument that must be moved with care. Professional piano movers in SLC know what type of equipment and which techniques to use to efficiently transport your piano without the risk of damage.
The best Salt Lake City piano moving companies use materials and equipment designed to safeguard your piano from scratches and internal damage:
- Piano dollies are used for upright pianos to safely navigate stairs, doorways, and truck ramps
- Piano skid boards are used to move grand and baby grand pianos after the legs are removed by allowing the piano to be tipped on its side safely
- Moving blankets, tie-down straps, and shrinkwrap protect the exterior of the piano from harm
Be careful when you trust a piano moving company in Salt Lake City with your cherished instrument. Unfortunately, many movers will eagerly offer to move instruments without the training or even the right equipment which often leads to heartache and costly repairs. Make sure you choose top-rated Salt Lake City piano movers who aren’t shy about discussing the precautions, expertise, and equipment they offer.
Salt Lake City Piano Moving Cost – What to Expect
How much does it cost to hire piano movers in Salt Lake City? While your Salt Lake City piano movers quote will be based on a variety of factors, you can be sure that it’s an affordable solution to ensure your precious piano isn’t damaged during your relocation.
Several factors go into determining the cost of piano moving including how easy the piano is to access, how far you’re moving, and the type of piano you have. Upright pianos are easier to move than grand pianos, for example, which need to have the legs removed. Salt Lake City piano moving company prices may also be higher if your piano needs to be hoisted or it’s located on a second story rather than a ground floor or a building with a service elevator.
Another aspect of SLC piano moving rates you may be curious about is whether you need to tip. While tipping is never required, movers always appreciate a tip for their hard work. How much tip for piano movers in Salt Lake City is appropriate? Most people who tip give $20 to $40 per mover.
Choosing the Best Salt Lake City Piano Moving Company
Ready to start your search for a dependable piano moving company near me? Choosing the best Salt Lake City piano movers requires balancing experience, price, and trust.
Finding an affordable piano moving company in Salt Lake City is important but price isn’t everything. You probably won’t feel like you got a great deal if you save a little on moving labor but end up with scratches on your piano or hardwood floors! Above all else, you want piano movers you can trust to do the job correctly with the right equipment, maintained trucks with good shock absorbers, and years of expertise.
We recommend starting your search with Salt Lake City piano movers reviews on Yelp and Google. You should look for an overall positive trend. After you have a list of well reviewed piano moving companies in Salt Lake, verify their credentials and USDOT number. Check how long the company has been in business and ask about the number of piano moves they have performed, their claims rate, and their process.

We have performed more than 10,000 moves and have average 4.8/5 star reviews from our customers.

London's crew came out and helped us unload some shipping containers after an interstate move. They did a great job helping us get everything into the place and organized. They were also super friendly and helpful, despite the three flights of stairs into the bedrooms. Thanks!

I remember a man by the name dametrious he use to work for another moving company he moved my dads old house when he worked for the other company he did a great job! He’s a quick worker he’s focused on the job & doesn’t just mope around! I myself had to move now and I called the same company he worked for before but said he didn’t work there anymore so then I decided to come here to find out that he works for this company now! I was super happy. He was also with any other man I believe Daniel. They were very great always moving. Wrapped all my important and expensive pieces. Nicely done. Definitely worth for what I paid! Great service. Great men! They were also on time. I definitely would recommend this moving company. read less

But she kept talking about a young man she said he was quite skinny but he could move! She said his name might of been dametrious or dametris. He was very quick never stopped kept moving and wrapped our valued pieces very neat. He was very carful with the bigger pieces. He was very kind.

We moved from Salt Lake to St. George and hiring these guys made it much less stressful. Price was one of the best we saw and the flat rate made it so we could really trust and budget for what we got. We did have to rent an additional U-Haul trailer even though we were quoted for everything in one truck. But there are lots of factors that went into that need. My advice is if they tell you it will be close in one truck- plan on needing more space. But the process was very fair, transparent and the movers did an incredible job overall. Crazy strong dudes work here and can bust through a move very quickly. They stored our truck overnight and we didnt have any issues there. A few smaller items arrived broken but they have insurance. Everything valuable arrived in good condition. Overall would recommend them! read less

It was not an easy move - multiple heavy, awkward items including a piano, and multiple stairs going in and out of the buildings. The weather was in the high 90s most of the 10 hour day. The crew showed up on time, was professional, brought all the necessary equipment for the job, and clearly knew what they were doing. They worked carefully together, using a spotter if needed for the heavy items, to move our furniture without damaging walls or doorways. We've been accustomed to paying extra for heavy items and the piano, but this was one flat rate. Overall excellent value for experienced movers and would highly recommend. read less

I was super impressed with how professional they were even the conditions they were working in...the 90-plus degree Heat and all the packing they had to do. That God blesses they were more than willing to do anything I ask and answered all the questions that I had what's the word for happy with adjustments on the Fly because moving is unpredictable.
It was worth every penny and I wish I could have tipped them more! The crew I had today was awesome and it was great to see such a great work ethic and attentive professionalism.
