How do you ensure my piano is protected during the move?
We use protective blankets, padding, heavy-duty dollies, professional lifting straps, and floor/doorway protection to safeguard your piano from damage.
Can you move an upright piano up or down stairs?
Some ground-floor to first-floor moves may be possible depending on the weight of the piano, the staircase and access available. As a two-man team, we assess every job individually and will always advise you honestly if specialist equipment or additional movers are required for a safe move. Send us photos of your piano and staircase on WhatsApp, and we'll let you know what's possible.
Do you assess the access and property layout before moving?
Yes - we carefully assess access points such as stairs, narrow hallways, and parking before moving your piano to avoid unnecessary risk and ensure safety.
Are your piano removal services insured?
