Why the number matters before you book
Weight decides the crew, equipment and access a move needs. It also decides the basic released-value payout if the piano is destroyed: federal released value is $0.60 per pound per article, not what the piano cost.
A 502 lb Yamaha U1 would be worth $301.20 on that basis. A 1,064 lb Steinway Model D would be worth $638.40. Read what that means on our piano moving insurance guide.

Two things we will not do with this table
We do not publish a figure we cannot link to. When a maker prints kilograms only, the pound figure is explicitly marked as a conversion, not a second source.
Where a maker publishes no weight
Baldwin
Baldwin's model listing pages for grands (BP148–BP211) and uprights (Acrosonic, Hamilton, Concert Vertical, C and X series) show model names and photographs with no dimensions and no weight.

One correction we are publishing openly
An older research note said Steinway & Sons did not publish piano weights. That is no longer true: on 3 August 2026 the model pages we checked showed net weights. The current figures are included above with their links.
