Piano, Safe & Specialty Item Moving

Uprights, grands, gun safes, and oversized one-off pieces — moved on boards and ramps by a crew that's done it before, from $375.

Some pieces don’t belong on a standard dolly. An upright piano, a baby grand, a 700-pound gun safe, a marble-top buffet — these need the right boards, ramps, and a crew that knows how to balance dead weight through a doorway and down a flight of stairs. E&E handles specialty items as their own job, starting at $375, whether it’s part of a full move or the only thing you need carried.

We come with piano boards, four-wheel skids, stair-climbing equipment, and heavy-duty straps, and we map the route through the house before anything tips. Pianos get blanket-wrapped and secured to the board; safes get walked, not slid, so they don’t gouge a floor or crack a threshold.

Moving a piano through a Jacksonville home

An upright off a San Marco living room or a grand out of a Ponte Vedra house each move differently. The legs and lyre come off a grand, while the upright stays whole on the board. We pad the keys and casing, clear the path, and take the turns slow. Narrow Riverside staircases get extra hands rather than extra speed.

Safes and oversized one-offs

For safes, large gym equipment, and stone-top furniture, we weigh the access points first (door widths, stair landings, the truck ramp angle) and bring the manpower the piece actually calls for.

Tell us the make and model and where it sits, and we’ll quote the specialty move before the day.

“Our place was in one of those old Riverside bungalows and the staircase out front is no joke. Eli's crew wrapped the banister, took their time on the tight turn, and not a single ding on our furniture. The written flat-rate quote they sent ahead matched the final bill to the dollar.”

“We live in a gated community off A1A and the HOA is strict about contractor gate passes. E&E handled the paperwork with the guard shack themselves so I didn't have to chase anything down. Three guys, done before the afternoon storm rolled in.”

“Big move from a house under the oak canopies down off the river. The crew was careful and friendly, only knock was they showed up about 40 minutes past the window because of an I-295 backup. Once they got rolling though they made up the time and the flat rate didn't budge.”

Service Questions

How much does it cost to move just a piano?
Specialty moves start at $375 and the final number depends on the instrument, the stairs, and the access at both ends. Send us the type — upright, console, or grand — and the floor it's on, and we'll quote it firm.
Can you get a piano down a narrow staircase in Riverside?
Yes. We add hands rather than rush it, set the piano on a board, and take the turns slow with someone calling each step. We walk the staircase before the move to plan the exact path.
Do you move large gun safes too?
We do. Safes get walked on equipment rather than dragged, and we measure the doorways and landings first so nothing gets forced or a threshold cracked. Heavier safes get a bigger crew.
Will you handle a grand piano's legs and pedals?
On a grand, we remove the legs and lyre, wrap and board the body on its side, and bag the hardware so it goes back together right at the destination. The keys and casing get padded the whole way.
