Boston to Springfield Piano Transport | Mt Auburn Piano Movers

Boston west to Springfield: 90 miles on I-90 into the Pioneer Valley, with one piano crew start to finish and a flat per-piano figure.

Springfield runs about 90 miles west of our Watertown shop, straight out the Pike into the Pioneer Valley. A fair number of these jobs are a grand bound for a Forest Park or Longmeadow home, a console headed for a teacher near one of the valley colleges, or an upright going to a church or recital room in the city. Whatever the piano, Mt Auburn Piano Movers keeps it on one truck with the same piano-only crew the full lane, so the crew that pads and boards your instrument in Boston is the crew that sets it in the Springfield room.

The drive is a steady hour and a half on I-90, the Mass Pike, mostly open highway once Worcester falls behind, which keeps the piano’s road time short. Paul rides along on the grands that warrant it, and the truck is padded and climate-aware, because a New England piano reacts to a quick swing in temperature or humidity even on a same-day run. A grand is tipped onto a skid board with the legs, lyre, and pedals off and reset at the far end; an upright rides strapped on the piano board. We are a licensed Massachusetts mover, a DPU household-goods carrier with USDOT and MC authority and a full million in cargo coverage, and we move pianos and a short list of heavy specialty pieces and nothing else. We never hand the lift to anyone. Get a Boston to Springfield piano quote, or see how our piano transport service runs this valley lane.

A piano is priced per piano, a flat figure you sign off before the truck rolls, steady the whole 90 miles unless stairs or a tight valley walk-up come into it. Send us the make and the access at both ends, and that number holds from your room in Boston to the room in Springfield.

“Our 1920s upright had to go up three flights to a Beacon Hill walk-up, and I honestly thought it could not be done. Dana's crew measured the switchback landing twice, strapped it to a board, and worked it up step by step without one bump to the wall. I took off a star only because they arrived about thirty minutes past the window, but they called ahead to say so and the move itself was flawless.”

“Getting a baby grand into our Back Bay brownstone meant a narrow front stoop and a tight turn at the parlor door. Gus had the legs and lyre off and the body on a skid board before I finished my coffee, and it slid through with inches to spare. These are the people you want on a piano.”

“We needed our concert grand delivered to the church sanctuary in time for a Sunday recital, and Mt Auburn treated it like the serious instrument it is. The crew protected the lid and the long tail, eased it up the chancel steps, and set it exactly where our director wanted it on the platform. Paul came out himself to check the placement before they left. Everything about the day was calm and professional.”

Route FAQ

How long does the piano move to Springfield take?

Figure about 90 miles west on I-90, the Mass Pike, near an hour and a half on the road. Almost every Springfield piano is loaded, driven, and placed in its new room the same day. Plan to let it sit two to four weeks in the new room before a tuner comes, so it can settle to the new humidity.

Is the Springfield price fixed before you arrive?

It is. A piano is priced per piano as a flat figure, built off the make, the type, and the access at both ends, not by the hour. Once we confirm the stairs and the carry, that figure is the bill. Only an unexpected flight of stairs or a long, tight carry would move it.

Does another company finish the move in Springfield?

Never. We are a licensed Massachusetts mover running our own trucks and our own piano-only crew, with USDOT and MC authority and a million in cargo coverage. The crew that skid-boards your grand in Boston unloads it in Springfield. No relay, no broker, no outside driver.

Do you cover Longmeadow and the Pioneer Valley colleges?

We do. Longmeadow, Chicopee, West Springfield, Holyoke, and the college towns up the valley toward Amherst and Northampton are all on this lane, family grands and campus instruments included. Name the address when you write in, and one per-piano figure covers the whole move.
