↴ See Our Flat-Rate Piano Pricing

Shoffner Piano Movers is based on Amnicola Hwy in Chattanooga and covers all of Hamilton County with the same flat-rate pricing and company-owned crew, no matter which suburb the piano is coming from or going to.

  • East Ridge — Split-level homes and narrow driveways off Ringgold Road, handled by riggers who know the layouts.
  • Red Bank — Hillside streets near Signal Mountain Boulevard, boarded and braced before the grade gets steep.
  • Signal Mountain — Switchback roads and mountaintop driveways rigged by the same crew that trains on them.
  • Soddy-Daisy — Rural driveways and longer carry distances priced into the flat rate up front.
  • Collegedale — Campus buildings and family homes near Southern Adventist University, scheduled around your timeline.
  • Ooltewah — Newer subdivisions and growing neighborhoods on the east side of the county.

A Few Things Worth Knowing Before Moving Day

Do you charge more to move a piano out of Signal Mountain or Soddy-Daisy than in Chattanooga proper?▾

No. Our flat rate is built by piano type, not zip code, so a driveway on Lookout Mountain or a longer carry in Soddy-Daisy doesn't change the number once it's quoted.

Will the same crew that quotes my move be the one that shows up?▾

Yes. The riggers who load your piano are our own employees, trained on the same boards and skids across every suburb we serve — we don't hand the job to a different crew or a day-labor outfit.

My piano needs to go up a narrow staircase in an older Red Bank or North Shore house — can you handle that?▾

That's a routine call for us. We ask about stairs, doorways, and turns during the quote so the crew arrives with the right boards and headcount instead of improvising on site.

Hamilton County Towns Our Piano Crew Covers

From the Amnicola Highway shop, Shoffner Piano Movers covers all of Chattanooga Metro / Hamilton County — East Ridge, Red Bank, Signal Mountain, Soddy-Daisy among them — with the same crews and trucks on every job, in town or out toward the county line.

What Makes Chattanooga Families Call Shoffner First

Restoration Background, Not Just a Rigging Crew

Owner Walter Shoffner spent twelve years rebuilding upright and grand pianos before he ever loaded one onto a truck, and that’s still who Chattanooga calls for the hardest rigging jobs.

Terrence Trains Every Rigger on Boards and Skids Before They Run Solo

New hires shadow rigging jobs under Terrence Wade until they can handle the boards, skids, and stair straps without him standing over their shoulder — nobody learns on your piano first.

Denise Confirms Access Before a Truck Ever Gets Scheduled

Stairwells, elevators, gate codes, and venue load-in windows get confirmed with the building days ahead, so a crew doesn’t show up to a piano that can’t get through the door it was measured for.

Tennessee Registration and Federal Authority, No Placeholder Numbers

Our household goods registration and our own federal DOT and MC authority are on file before you ever ask to see them — no subcontracted carrier standing in for us on move day.

A $175 Deposit That Comes Back If Plans Change

Cancel or reschedule 72 hours or more before your move date and the deposit is refunded in full — an ice storm or a closing delay doesn’t cost you anything extra.

No Fuel, Mileage, or Humidity-Season Charge Inside Hamilton County

The flat rate quoted on the phone is the flat rate on the invoice, whether the move happens in a dry October or the middle of a humid Chattanooga August.

Yolanda Crates to One Standard, Local or Long-Distance

Padding, blanket-wrapping, and crating follow the same process whether the piano is going three miles across town or three states up the interstate toward Nashville.

Riggers Who Already Know Lookout Mountain and the North Shore

Switchback driveways on Signal Mountain and narrow shotgun-house staircases downtown aren’t a surprise to a crew that rigs them regularly — the flat rate accounts for the terrain before the truck arrives.

One Crew Chief, Start to Finish

Terrence or Yolanda runs your job from the first walkthrough to the final setdown — not a different lead every time the piano changes hands.

Recent Words From People We’ve Moved

Nothing rewritten, nothing trimmed — this is what people told us after the truck pulled away.

Three flights, one landing turn, no elevator — the crew had our upright wrapped and rigged through it in under twenty minutes.

★★★★★

An ice storm pushed our date back five days and the quote didn’t change by a dollar — same crew, same truck, just a Thursday instead of a Saturday.

Emory Castellano
★★★★★

Our piano was crated for the drive to Huntsville and came off the truck exactly like it left — not one hairline crack in the finish.

Odalys Ferreira
★★★★★

Load-in for the recital happened two hours before doors, exactly when Denise said it would — the piano was tuned and ready before a single seat filled.

My grandmother’s upright is eighty years old and they moved it like they knew that — blankets on every corner, straps that never touched the finish.
