Are you moving on your own or enlisting the help of professionals? This is the most important factor that will determine how many people will be needed to assist.

Another thing to think about is the type of piano you're working with. Is that a grand piano? Or how about an upright piano? Not to mention the fact that the location matters!

Plan ahead of time if you'll be moving your piano up and down the stairs, lifts, or through tight areas. To find out how many people you'll need to transport a piano, keep reading.

Now imagine that you're hiring people to relocate your piano. How many people are you hiring to transport your belongings? Professional moving firms usually have enough knowledge and skill to know just how many movers they'll need to do the job.

When you're telling them about the transfer and the challenges they'll face, it's crucial, to be honest, and upfront with them. Is your driveway particularly slanted? How many flights of landings or stairs will they have to navigate in order to securely transport the piano in and out of the house? 

If you know you'll have a tough time transporting your piano, tell them right away. That way, they'll know precisely what to anticipate and how many movers they'll need. Even though it's your home and you're familiar with all of the nuances, imagine having to cope with a large instrument and dragging it down steep staircases or attempting not to tumble over while making their way to the moving vehicle. Honesty is the best policy and being transparent about the details will definitely help you with a stress-free and successful piano move!

Unless you're in the piano moving business, you'll almost certainly need more employees than a moving firm would ever require.

As we previously stated, the type of piano you have and the architecture of your home all play a significant part in transporting your piano. There is such a thing as having too many individuals assist with the relocation. Have you ever heard of a kitchen with too many cooks? The piano will most likely require the assistance of 3-4 persons.

Hire professional piano movers for the job if you don't want to deal with the inconvenience of hiring friends, borrowing or renting the right piano moving equipment, or monitoring the entire process.

Maybe there's something to be said about learning a lesson the hard way, but following a difficult DIY relocation, individuals frequently employ piano movers again. Especially when you consider that the added stress of relocating the piano on your own diverts your time and focus away from more pressing matters.
