They were quick to get here, the furniture was heavy and they moved it to where we wanted it. Would use again and would recommend for any moving. Thank you guys! - Scott

These guys worked so fast and efficiently. Anthony did an amazing job organizing and packing my car with such precision. It’s going to be so easy to find what I’m looking for when I need something. He left me with a clear field of vision from every angle. I have a 31 hour drive, so I appreciate feeling safe. Malik was friendly, kind, and incredibly hard working. The stairs are both steep and winding. Many of my belonging were incredibly heavy. With armfuls of items, Malik flew up and down those stairs like he had wings. After all of that, he even grabbed several bags of my garbage and took them down to the can. I’ve been running off of 3 hours sleep in 2 days, packing and cleaning nonstop. That act of kindness was very much needed and appreciated. Thank you guys for all of your hard work. - Amanda

Jonathan and Marquail consistently go above and beyond. Today they hauled a heavy armoire down stairs and on and off the truck and into another house. Amazing! Gratitude. - Elle

Amazing service, both of these guys were great!! The wardrobe was extremely extra heavy and there was some hard angles to get through. I appreciate them a lot!! - Gianna

thank you both so much!! made lifting a very very heavy piece up multiple flights of stairs look very seamless - Emma

The mattress was very heavy and they worked as a team to get it up there. It was very hard. They did a great job. - Irene

Isiah and Chris were incredible! They were so kind and friendly! And they were very experienced movers who work really hard. They helped me unload some heavy items from a truck and then they moved those items into my house. I appreciated that they wanted to scope out the route they’d take to bring everything in first (instead of just diving right in). They were thoughtful and careful and treated these household items as if they were their own. They were also conscientious and went above and beyond. When the plans changed, they went the extra mile to make sure everything was set up the way it needed to be. I’m very grateful for all of their help! Thank you, Chris and Isiah! - Blaine

Excellent!! They were super nice and did a great job with a very heavy dresser. Would use over again and again! - Andy

Jonathan and Pedro did a great job delivering my very heavy sofa exactly where I wanted it! They were efficient and a pleasure to work with! - Dylan

Isiah was so nice, he managed several pieces on his own including a heavy cabinet, he arrived on time, and he was happy to work with me to take all the items off his truck. Would be very happy to hire him again. - Elle

Daniel and Javair were awesome! They arrived early, were very professional and took great care while in my house moving a very heavy mattress. Great job guys! Thank you! - Phil

When they got here they were polite, introduced themselves . Friendly to my husband who was outside. Very careful W/ carrying in the heavy pc of furniture. Asking where I wanted it , placed it there & asked if was ok or they would move it to where I needed it . Very accommodating! My husband & I We’re very impressed w/ the service , promptness, & the friendly delivery guys! Will keep the # if I need this again great experience! They both deserve GOLD Stars ⭐️ - Lynn

They were right on time picking up. Very responsive and helpful setting up the pick up. They also wrapped the dressers so I really liked that. Also they were heavy and managed very well! So pleasant. - Rene

They stayed in touch with me during the delivery process and were so kind enough to help my son take the mattress up to my apartment. It was too heavy for me to do it with my son alone. Very kind. - Christine

Our cabinets were super heavy and they put in their best efforts to fit in our small room upstairs. Very good team work and personality. - Hui

Arrival time was on time to a T, friendly service and carried the heavy item right on inside directly where I wanted it. Great service, greatly appreciated! 👍🏻 - K

Made sure to be careful of the furniture and walls when bringing the sofa up the stairs. Helped overcome a few unforseen obstacles that came up to deliver my furniture on time. Would use service again - Jonathon

Sent me updates on the delivery time. Arrived in an enclosed van. Were very careful bringing the pieces upstairs. - judy

They were very accommodating they even helped move a dresser up the stairs for me, in addition to bringing the two chairs up that they were scheduled to. Thank you. - Veronica

Farid and Isaiah were excellent. Efficient, navigated the senior living parking and loading zone with little direction, and worked quickly. Super friendly on top of it. Recommend! - Kristen

Was very friendly and efficient with the drop off and pickup and made my first time using Lugg very pleasant and easy. - David

My delivery by Luis and Alexander went fine. Both gentlemen were professional, friendly and helpful in placing the items. It’s refreshing to work with such positive and kind people. I’m glad Home Goods introduced me to the Lugg Lite services. I’m sure I will be using them in the future. - Linda

Ralph really went above and beyond managing big pieces of furniture and even tucking them away in my storage for me. Super job! - Elle

Jared and Nate were terrific! They were efficient, professional, and gracious when we discovered the distance the furniture had to be carried was much further than anticipated. We were grateful for their help—they are stellar!!! 🌟 - Fran

Lugg is an on-demand moving and delivery platform in New Haven where you book local movers to carry upright, console, spinet and digital pianos to a new home, up or down a flight of stairs, or home from a seller.
Upright piano movers carry it standing. A full upright can stand up to 60 inches tall, taller than a Van's 4.5 ft cargo area, so book a Pickup, XL or Box for one of those. Lugg movers bring dollies, furniture blankets, stretch wrap and straps to every job.
Lugg's weight limit is 125 lbs per Lugger, so up to 250 lbs on any vehicle that comes with two Luggers. Most acoustic pianos weigh more than that, so book a second Lugg for the same time window and both arrive together for the lift. Use the type of piano to decide:
Not sure which you have? The maker's name is usually above the keys, and looking up the model will give you its weight. If it's borderline, someone you know can be there at both ends to help the crew instead.
Piano moving services with Lugg are priced on three things you can see before you book: the truck you pick, the distance between your addresses, and how long the job takes on site. Each Lugg you add for the weight is its own booking with its own estimate, and a long staircase adds time on site.
Luggers will always make their best attempt on stairs. A narrow or steep staircase adds complexity, though, and may need a second Lugg, so measure the stairwell and every turn before you book. Before they arrive, close and lock the lid so the keys stay covered, and move the bench separately.
Lugg movers can move a baby grand or a grand within the same home, room to room or lifted so a rug can go underneath, as long as it fits through every doorway and turn and enough Luggers are booked for the weight. A grand that's leaving the building is a job for a specialist piano mover, because the legs and lyre come off and the body travels on its side on a piano board.
Free pianos are common on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace, usually on the condition that you get it out yourself. Ask the seller for photos of the stairs and doorway before you book, so you know which truck and how many Luggs you need. If you're paying for it, settle up with the seller before the crew arrives, since Luggers can't pay on your behalf.
Plan to have the piano tuned two to four weeks after the move, once it has settled into the new room's temperature and humidity. Luggers move the instrument and aren't piano technicians, so tuning and repairs go to a piano technician.
The easiest way to move a piano in New Haven without renting a truck is by booking Lugg. We provide movers and a truck on demand — no truck rental, deposits, or driving required. Your Luggers handle all the lifting, transport, and room-of-choice placement.
The standard weight limit is 250 lbs per item for a 2-Lugger booking. Many large items like hot tubs, pool tables, and pianos exceed this — for those, book additional Luggers or have someone available to help, for safe handling.
Yes, Lugg can pick up and deliver from big-box stores like Home Depot and HomeGoods, local shops, and from online marketplace sellers on platforms such as Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist in New Haven.
At the destination, your Luggers will deliver your piano to your room of choice and place it right where you want it.
Yes, the standard weight limit is 125 lbs per item per Lugger. Many large items like hot tubs, pool tables, and pianos exceed this, and for those, we recommend booking multiple crews, or having someone available to help the crew.
Yes, with Lugg you can book true on-demand piano moves in New Haven, with movers arriving within the hour. That means you can have movers pick up and deliver your bulky item the same day you buy it. You can also schedule up to 60 days in advance, perfect for coordinating deliveries.
Lugg prices every booking as a base fare for the vehicle you pick, a per-mile rate for the distance between your stops, and labor billed by the minute with no hourly minimum. You'll see your upfront estimate before you book, including a small variable booking fee, and rates vary by city.
The vehicle you pick sets most of the price, so a single piece of furniture in a Lite or Pickup costs much less than a full apartment in a Box. Routes over 30 miles add a long-distance fee, which is already in your estimate, and a Movers only job has no mileage at all.
Yes, you are responsible for securing safe and legal parking for your piano move. If a permit is required at your location in New Haven, please arrange it in advance. If safe parking isn't available, your Lugg may need to be canceled and your move rescheduled. Please note that wait time is billable.
Yes, every Lugg booking includes room-of-choice placement for your piano move. Just let your Luggers know where you'd like your item(s) placed. Please note that we do not provide mounting or installation services.
Make sure there's a clear 3–4 ft path, measure any tight spaces, protect floors, and secure pets. If your building requires it, reserve elevators or loading docks ahead of time. Keep your phone nearby so you don't miss live updates or crew messages during your move.
We always recommend inspecting your piano upon arrival. In the rare event that damage occurs to your item(s) or your property in New Haven, our Support Team will promptly review the issue, coordinate any necessary repairs or replacements, and work with you to make things right.
To file a damage claim, get in touch through our contact page or use live chat. We'll guide you through the next steps and may ask you to hold the item while we review and resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
