We’ve been moving pianos, safes, and fine art through Lake Mary since 2006. We know the difference between a Heathrow guard gate that needs paperwork filed three days ahead and a Longwood Landing cul-de-sac that won’t fit anything larger than a 16-foot shuttle truck. Lake Mary’s planned communities were built for curb appeal, not for moving a 600-pound Steinway or a gun safe down a curved staircase. That’s where our Piano & Specialty Moving team earns its keep.
Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Lake Mary’s Preferred Piano & Specialty Moving Company
Lake Mary functions as Seminole County’s primary corporate corridor, anchored by regional and national headquarters near the I-4 and Lake Mary Boulevard interchange. This generates an unusually high volume of employer-sponsored, white-glove residential relocations compared to neighboring Sanford or Longwood. We’ve handled dozens of these transfers, often coordinating with relocation departments at companies along International Parkway to meet tight start-date windows.
Our crew recently moved a 1920s Steinway grand from a two-story foyer in the Savona section of Heathrow. The piano’s legs were original, and the tight, curved staircase meant we had to use a crane from the balcony, coordinating with the HOA for a crane permit. We wrapped it in padded blankets and used a skid to protect the tile floor, completing the move ahead of an incoming storm. The homeowner’s review mentioned we were the only company that didn’t flinch at the HOA paperwork.
We answer our phones live, 24/7. Before your move, during the move, and if something needs attention afterward. Our 90-Day Done Right Promise means one call brings a crew or a check, not a claim form that disappears into a third-party system.
Our trucks are garaged locally, not dispatched from Orlando or Tampa. That matters when you’re staring at a thunderstorm rolling in from the west and your piano is still on the curb.
Our Piano & Specialty Moving Services in Lake Mary
Piano Moving in Lake Mary
We move uprights, grands, baby grands, and player pianos throughout Lake Mary’s 32746 and 32795 ZIP codes. Most Lake Mary homes built between 1988 and 2005 have two-story foyers with curved staircases that look dramatic but create real problems for a 500-pound instrument. We survey every piano move in person or by video to measure turns, tread width, and ceiling height. When stairs won’t work, we arrange crane service through the balcony or a second-floor window, filing HOA permits as needed. Piano moving in Lake Mary runs $200-$900.

Antique & Fine Art Moving in Lake Mary
Lake Mary’s executive relocations often include original art, estate antiques, and collectibles acquired during overseas postings. We build custom crates on-site for high-value pieces, use acid-free wrapping materials, and maintain climate control during transport. Antique and fine art moving in Lake Mary ranges $450-$2,500 depending on crating needs and insurance valuation. Every piece we pack carries full-value protection under our Move-Right Guarantee.

Safe & Gun Safe Moving in Lake Mary
Gun safes and document safes are common in Lake Mary homes, particularly in the larger estate properties near the Heathrow golf course. A 400-pound safe down a tile staircase requires a stair-climbing dolly, floor protection, and a crew that knows how to distribute weight without damaging walls. We bolt safes to garage slabs or interior closets as part of the service. Safe and gun safe moving in Lake Mary runs $200-$900.

Pool Table Moving in Lake Mary
Pool tables in Lake Mary rec rooms and converted garages need disassembly, slate crating, and precise re-leveling at destination. We don’t subcontract this work. Our crews carry Milwaukee tools for rail removal and Uline crating supplies for slate protection. The humid Lake Mary climate can warp rails if a table sits unassembled too long, so we schedule reassembly within 24 hours when possible.

Appliance Moving in Lake Mary
Sub-zero refrigerators, wine coolers, and built-in appliances require door removal, water line disconnect, and careful handling of compressors. We move these in Lake Mary’s larger homes, particularly in the Heathrow and Griffin Farms areas where kitchen upgrades are common. We don’t hook up gas lines or electrical, but we coordinate timing with your installer so the appliance isn’t sitting in a garage for days.

Hot Tub Moving in Lake Mary
Hot tubs on Lake Mary patios and lanai spaces need crane or specialty equipment for deck removal and placement. We assess deck load capacity, fence gate widths, and electrical disconnect requirements during our survey. Many Lake Mary hot tub moves happen during home sales, with closing dates that don’t flex. We build buffer time into these jobs.

Trusted Brands We Service in Lake Mary
We regularly move Steinway, Yamaha, Baldwin, and Kawai pianos in Lake Mary homes, and we transport Browning, Fort Knox, and Liberty safes for local collectors. Our trucks carry Milwaukee moving equipment and Uline protective materials, and we maintain relationships with Ryder for supplemental vehicle capacity during peak relocation seasons. For local jobs that need a smaller shuttle vehicle, we coordinate U-Haul 16-foot trucks when a 26-footer won’t clear a community entrance. Parts and supplies are stocked locally, so we don’t lose days waiting for delivery.
Common Piano & Specialty Moving Problems We See in Lake Mary Homes
- Underestimating gate delays: Not filing HOA move-in paperwork days ahead can leave your truck sitting at Heathrow’s guard gate, burning hours and risking a late move. We file paperwork three to five days before arrival and confirm with the management office the morning of.
- Tight foyers and cul-de-sacs: Planning a 26-foot truck when the community’s low-clearance entrance or narrow streets require a smaller shuttle vehicle leads to double handling and potential damage. We scout access during our survey and bring the right truck the first time.
- Weather-related damage: Scheduling an afternoon move during rainy season exposes the piano to humidity and sudden downpours, causing wood to swell and veneers to peel. We always start by 7 a.m. and stage in the garage when possible.
- Original piano hardware on older instruments: Many Lake Mary homes have pianos purchased during the 1990s Florida boom, with original casters and leg brackets that have become brittle. We inspect and reinforce these before lifting, because a leg failure at the top of a staircase is not a repairable situation.

FAQs - Piano & Specialty Moving in Lake Mary
Yes, most gated communities in Lake Mary, particularly Heathrow, require a move authorization letter from the HOA or homeowner filed several days in advance. We handle this paperwork as part of our standard coordination, and we factor 20-30 minutes of gate delay into your job estimate. Call (855) 890-3455 and we’ll confirm your community’s specific requirements during the survey.
Yes, we regularly move pianos up curved staircases in Lake Mary’s two-story homes, though sometimes we recommend a crane or balcony hoist instead. We measure tread width, ceiling height, and turn radius during our survey to determine the safest approach. The Savona move we completed in Heathrow used a crane for exactly this reason, and the piano arrived without a scratch.
Schedule your move for a 7 a.m. start time, and book at least one week ahead during June through September when afternoon thunderstorms are near-daily. We stage pianos in air-conditioned garages rather than open trucks when weather threatens, and we monitor radar to adjust timing. Call (855) 890-3455 to reserve your morning slot.
We’ll bring a 16-foot shuttle truck that fits your community’s streets, then transfer to our larger truck for transport. This is standard practice in Lake Mary subdivisions with narrow cul-de-sacs and low-clearance entrances. We factor shuttle time into your binding quote, so there’s no surprise charge when the big truck can’t reach your driveway.
Most antique pianos hold or appreciate in value if properly maintained, and replacement with a comparable new instrument often costs $15,000-$60,000 for a quality grand. We assess your piano’s condition during our survey and can recommend a local piano technician for tuning and regulation after the move. For a binding move quote and condition assessment, call (855) 890-3455.
