New Hampshire runs up I-93 and I-95 from our Watertown shop, an hour to Manchester and Nashua and a bit more to the Seacoast and the Lakes Region. The state mixes brick mill-city housing with rambling colonials and lake houses, and each calls for a different approach. Manchester’s Amoskeag-era three-deckers have steep, turning back stairs, while the Seacoast towns around Portsmouth carry family grands in old center-chimney colonials with low doorways and tight thresholds. Paul Marchetti trained as a piano technician before founding Mt Auburn Piano Movers in 2009, and his crews read a tight 18th-century stairwell the way they read a Beacon Hill one, planning the carry around the instrument.
We move pianos across the state for homeowners, churches, and the colleges. Concord and the capital-area churches keep sanctuary grands and the occasional pipe organ, Nashua and the southern-tier commuter towns bring condo and relocation work, and the Lakes Region and the White Mountains ask for real climate care because the freeze-thaw swings and dry winters are brutal on a piano. Our padded, climate-aware trucks and climate-controlled storage handle that, and we always give a piano a few weeks to settle before lining up a tuner. A console runs $280 to $480 flat and a grand $580 to $980; interstate transport from Boston is a per-piano base plus mileage, quoted per job, with $1M in cargo coverage on every load. Stairs add about $40 to $75 a flight, and a long carry up a lake-house drive runs $60 to $140.
