A piano is the one item where “we’ll just carry it” tends to end in a cracked soundboard, a gouged floor, or a hurt back. It’s heavy, awkward, deceptively fragile, and worth protecting. Cal’s Moving & Storage moves pianos across Beaverton and Washington County with the right equipment, the right technique, and crews who understand what they’re carrying — not a furniture dolly and optimism.

Uprights, Grands, and Digital Instruments

We move spinets and uprights, baby grands and grands, and heavy digital and console pianos. Grands in particular aren’t simply lifted — the legs and lyre are removed, and the instrument is boarded, wrapped, and secured for the move, then reassembled and positioned at the destination. We bring piano boards, skid boards, straps, and proper padding made for the job.

Beaverton Homes, Stairs, and Split-Levels

Most piano moves come down to access, and Beaverton’s housing stock brings its own versions: split-level and two-story homes around Cedar Hills and Cedar Mill with a turn at the landing, apartments and condos with exterior stairs, and newer homes off Murray and Scholls Ferry with their own layouts. An upright going up to a second floor or a grand coming out through a standard doorway both take planning — we assess the path at both ends before move day so there are no dangerous surprises.

Homes, Studios, and Churches

We move pianos for private homes, teaching studios, and churches across the Beaverton area. Whether it’s a family heirloom upright or a well-loved grand, it gets handled with the care its value — sentimental or literal — deserves.

Protected From the Move and the Weather

Pianos are sensitive to both knocks and moisture. We wrap and pad thoroughly and keep the instrument protected from the Northwest damp in transit. For tuning, we recommend letting a piano settle in its new spot before you call a tuner — movement and climate change affect pitch.

Straightforward Pricing

Piano moves are quoted by the instrument type and the access at both ends — stairs, turns, and distance — with a clear estimate up front and no vague surprises. See our Oregon moving cost guide for context.

Should I tune it after the move?

We recommend letting it settle in its new spot for a couple of weeks before tuning, since movement and climate affect pitch.
