I am moving to my new house that is about 30 miles from my current location. I need a moving company to help me to move my furniture including one grand piano. Which moving company has the professional skills to move the grand piano?

Any of the large moving companies should have the equipment to move the piano unless it’s a concert grand. It does take some specialized equipment and a knowledge of how to take down the piano. (removing the lyre, lifting the straight side and removing that leg, “kneeling the piano” and strapping it to a piano moving skid, then removing the other legs.)
Of course all the proper padding needs to be in place as well, including some inside to keep the lid prop and music desk from flopping all over the place.
I wouldn’t trust companies like “two guys and a truck” or “starving students”. Bekins, Mayflower, Allied, etc should be okay.
If you’re concerned about the instrument you could contact a piano moving specialist. Try starting your search here: http://www.pianomoversnetwork.com/
