My partner and I are definitely moving to Rochester next month, and I need your help figuring out how to move my piano along with our furniture.

Does anyone know if a regular van line company would be safe to use for my grand piano, or are there specific companies who move pianos who will also be willing to move our furniture?

Hopefully some of you have experience with this particular situation and can help me out. Any ideas/advice is greatly appreciated!

HOLY CARP!!!
I'd only let qualified insured piano mover touch my piano.
They specialize.

I'd get local recommendatiaons.

I don't really have an educated response here, but I can say. . . way back when my family moved into the house they live in now, the movers tore up our flooring in the entryway while bringing in the piano.

Pianos are pretty fragile and awkward things. I would think it's probably worth it to invest in a specialist to move it.

Good luck!

And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

Move what you can yourself, or get a moving company to do everything EXCEPT the piano.

Get special piano movers to do the piano, without a doubt.
