London's Trusted Piano Moving Specialists

A piano isn't just heavy — it's a precision instrument worth thousands of pounds that can be damaged by the slightest bump, tilt, or temperature change. Moving one requires specialist knowledge, equipment, and handling techniques that general movers simply don't have.

Our piano moving team has relocated hundreds of pianos across London, from vintage Steinway grands in Mayfair to upright Yamahas in student flats. We use purpose-built piano skids, specialist straps, padded covers, and ramp systems that protect both the instrument and your property.

Every Type of Piano

We move upright pianos, baby grands, grand pianos, digital pianos, and keyboard instruments. Each type requires different handling techniques and equipment — and we're trained for all of them.

Everything you need for a stress-free experience.

  • Piano Moving Specialists

  • Specialist Equipment

Why General Movers Shouldn't Move Your Piano

Pianos look sturdy, but they're incredibly delicate instruments containing thousands of moving parts, tensioned strings under immense pressure, and precision mechanisms that can be thrown out of alignment by rough handling.

Common Mistakes General Movers Make

  • Tilting a grand piano: Can cause the soundboard to crack
  • Using the wrong straps: Damages the finish and can dent the casing
  • No piano skid: Dragging damages legs and the base
  • Bumping down stairs: Internal hammers and strings can be damaged
  • Ignoring humidity: Moving between very different environments without acclimatisation

Our team avoids all of these because piano moving is what we're trained for.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our piano removal service.

How much does it cost to move a piano in London?

Every piano move gets a free, fixed quote, whether it's a digital piano, an upright, a baby grand or a concert grand. Stairs, distance, and access difficulty are all factored in upfront. Get a piano moving quote.

Can you move a piano up/down stairs?

Yes — we regularly move pianos up and down stairs, including spiral staircases. We use specialist equipment and techniques. The staircase details are factored into your fixed-price quote.

Will the piano need tuning after the move?

Most likely, yes. We recommend allowing 24-48 hours for the piano to acclimatise to its new environment, then having it professionally tuned. We can recommend trusted piano tuners if needed.

Do you move pianos to storage?

Yes — we offer climate-aware piano storage. Ideal if you're between homes, renovating, or downsizing temporarily. We collect, store, and deliver when you're ready.

How many people does it take to move a piano?

Digital: 1-2 people. Upright: 2-3 people. Baby grand: 3-4 people. Grand: 4 people. We always send the right size team for your specific piano.

Do you disassemble grand pianos for transport?

Yes — for grand and baby grand pianos, we remove the legs, lyre, and lid for safe transport. Everything is carefully wrapped and reassembled at the destination.
