Piano Moving

An upright in a raised home outside Gibson comes down a steep exterior staircase at an angle most movers won’t attempt twice. A baby grand headed into a place near Gray has to clear a narrower doorway than the moving guide ever accounts for. Piano moves in Terrebonne Parish are their own specialty, and we don’t treat them like oversized furniture that happens to have legs and a lid.

Equipment Built for the Job

• Piano board, skid straps, and a stair-climbing dolly rated for the weight class
• Crew trained specifically on upright, spinet, baby grand, and full grand moves
• Elevation ramps built for stilt-home entries with no ground-level door
• Climate-aware wrap so humidity doesn’t warp the case or loosen the finish in transit
• Two-person minimum crew on any job, four-person standard on grands

Wade Authement’s crew handles our long-distance piano moves; Dominic Verdin’s crew handles local ones — either way, the same two or three people who quoted the job are the ones lifting it. As they say around here, we take care, cher — it’s a family piece, not a couch. Call (888) 278-9005 with the make, model, and stair count, and we’ll tell you straight whether it’s a two-person or four-person job before anyone shows up.

A piano that’s spent a decade in a Terrebonne Parish front room has usually absorbed more moisture than the owner realizes, which adds weight the crew plans for ahead of time instead of discovering it halfway up a stairwell. That’s a detail generic movers routinely miss, and it’s exactly why we quote pianos separately instead of guessing off a standard furniture chart.
