How We Move Pianos in Franklin TN
Pre-Move Assessment
We measure the piano, the doorways, the stairs, and the truck approach. Then we build the plan.
Wrap & Disassemble
Blankets, shrink wrap, custom skid boards. Legs and pedals removed and secured for grands.
Climate-Controlled Transport
Four-point securement, GPS tracked truck, monitored humidity. The soundboard stays stable.
Placement & Reassembly
Exact placement, leg and pedal reassembly. Recommend a local tuner for 2-3 weeks post-move.
Nashville Movers
A piano is an instrument, not just heavy furniture.
Tuning pins, action mechanisms, soundboards, and hammers all shift under the wrong handling. Here is what professional piano crews bring that even general movers cannot.
Specialized Training
Crews trained on balance points, action lock procedure, and piano center of gravity. Not just heavy lifting.
Proper Equipment
Piano dollies, four-wheel skid boards, lift gates, and ratchet straps designed specifically for instruments.
Damage Prevention
Wood finish, ivory keys, and pedals stay protected. Floor runners protect your hardwood floors too.
Safety First
No injuries from lifting a 400 to 1,200 lb instrument. No back strain, no dropped piano, no scratched banister.
Every piano type, every Franklin home.
From a console upright to a 9-foot Steinway concert grand, we handle every variety with type-specific protocols.
Upright Pianos
Compact but heavy. Navigated through narrow hallways and tight Franklin doorways using shoulder dollies and protective padding.
Baby Grand Pianos
Elegant and delicate. Legs and pedals removed, lid locked, body placed on a custom skid board for safe transport.
Concert Grand Pianos
The heaviest and most complex. Custom rigging, climate controlled transport, and white glove handling from start to finish.
Digital & Console
Smaller but electronically sensitive. Anti-static wrapping, careful loading, and stable transport to protect circuit boards.
Homes, schools, and venues across Franklin TN.
Three very different settings, three different protocols, one consistent standard of care.
For Families
Moving a family piano during a relocation or just redesigning the living room. Hardwood protection, careful navigation, and reassembly included.
For Institutions
Music programs, classrooms, recital halls, and chapels. We schedule around class times and provide COIs for facility managers.
For Performances
Recording studios, churches, performance halls, and event spaces. Precise placement, on-time delivery, and post-move tuning coordination.

Why Customers Trust 3PDELIVERY615
My son and daughter in law were canceled on by another moving company they had scheduled 2 weeks prior. As a mother, I was disappointed for them because they had this planned for weeks. I called Heather and explained the situation, she put me on a brief hold and spoke with William. Heather told me they typically do not work on Sunday, but given the circumstances- they were willing to accommodate!!! How wonderful is it to know that customer service still exists! She not only made it happen, but she heard me as a mom and my disappointment for my son and daughter in law. Heather was so compassionate and kind to orchestrate the move in less than 24 hours! I can not recommend this place enough. I hope their business is blessed beyond measure and they have to turn people away. Great company and highly professional! Thank you again Heather and William!
Will has created a great moving company. No matter if you need a few items moved or your entire house the crew is always professional. Luke and TJ can pull off the impossible! The whole crew simply cares about making the customer happy.
I have used them many times and highly recommend them to you, your family and friends.
Luke and company did a great job moving a heavy piece of equipment that was very fragile. They were very professional and quickly assessed how best to get the equipment in place. They were very careful of not only the equipment but the walls and flooring steps and doorways they had to maneuver through. I would not hesitate to all 3P next time I need help
3P Delivery did an outstanding job moving my home! Not only were they super efficient and fast, they were so kind and made sure everything was taken care of. I really appreciated how they made me feel at ease and how hardworking they were. I highly recommend William and Wesley! Great business that I plan on using in the future!
My daughter was moving apartments in the same complex and we needed a little help with the larger items. We called 3PDelivery615 and spoke with William. It was short notice and they had no availability on Saturday. William was able to get two great guys Jacob and Wesley willing to come in on their day off (a Sunday) in the snow! They were friendly, funny and professional! They were so efficient, they got everything moved in one hour saving us money in the long run. The willingness for the company to help us out on a Sunday in the snow and for the Wesley and Jacob to be so efficient is a true testament to how great this company is! We highly recommend giving them a call for any moving needs big or small like our job!
I hired 3P Delivery to deliver new furniture I purchased from PD’s, and they did a great job! The team was punctual, professional, and handled the furniture with care. Everything arrived in perfect condition, and the delivery process was smooth overall. I’d definitely use them again and recommend them for reliable delivery service.
The guys from 3P were great to work with and very professional. As a busy staging and design company we need reliable movers who keep our furnishings looking good and who are reliable to work with. We highly recommend the team from 3P!
We had the best experience with 3P — the guys that were in charge of our move were experienced and also hilarious, we were entertained all day. Quentin, Luke, and Primm are the best! They even stayed late when we had to go get extra boxes.
The movers were efficient, very careful, and respectful. I will be moving again in the next month and I’ve already scheduled them since I was very satisfied with their service!
3P delivery helped me very last minute to get my furniture delivered. Everything was delivered by Wesley on time even though it was raining. He took extra precautions to wear foot covers and gloves to protect my furniture and floors. He was neat, professional and very respectful of my home and my belongings. He also made sure everything was in its place before leaving and that I was happy with their service. William helped me get this scheduled last minute. I’m so grateful they could squeeze me in so quickly with such great service.
