Answer a few questions about your piano and move to get a personalized cost estimate.
Calculate My Moving CostMoving a piano is a specialized job: a full-size upright weighs 500–800 lbs and a grand up to 1,200 lbs, with most of that weight concentrated in a cast-iron frame that's easy to damage with the wrong equipment. In Las Vegas, dedicated piano movers charge $110–$220 for a typical local upright move — 12% below the national average. Below is what to expect for every common scenario in Las Vegas, NV.
