Upright and grand piano moves across London

Piano Removals London

With a history of serving since 2013, we come to you with years of valuable moving experience.

Quick answer

We move pianos across London with the right equipment for the job. Uprights, grands and digital pianos are wrapped, moved on proper piano gear and secured in the van. Because every piano and every doorway is different, piano moves are quoted individually. Tell us the type of piano, both postcodes and the access, and we'll give you a written price. Prices start from £50 an hour for one mover and a van, or £75 for two, and bigger jobs get a fixed written price before you book.

A piano is heavy, valuable and easy to damage if it's handled the wrong way. We move pianos across London with the right kit and a careful approach, so your instrument reaches its new home safely.

The right equipment and a careful approach, so your piano arrives safely.

Pianos we move

Different pianos need different handling, and we plan for each.

Upright pianos

The most common piano move. Wrapped, moved on the right gear and secured in the van.

Grand and baby grand

Larger and more delicate, planned carefully around the size and the access.

Digital pianos

Lighter, but still worth protecting. We wrap and secure them like any instrument.

Stairs and tight spaces

We assess the route first and bring the right lifting aids for stairs and narrow doorways.

Protective wrapping

Padded covers and straps protect the case, keys and legs on the move.

Room to room

Not moving house? We can shift a piano between rooms or floors in the same building.

Planned around the piano and the doorway

Two things decide a piano move: the piano, and the access at each end.

So we ask about both first. We check the type and size, the stairs, the doorways and where the van can park, then bring the right lifting gear. The piano is wrapped, moved on proper equipment and strapped safely in the van.

Because no two piano moves are the same, we give you a written price for your exact job.

What piano removals cost in London

Piano moves are quoted individually rather than by a set hourly rate, because the piano and the access change the job so much. The price depends on:

  • The type and size of the piano.
  • The stairs, doorways and access at both ends.
  • The distance between the two addresses.
  • Whether extra lifting help is needed.

A few things worth knowing

To keep your piano safe and sounding right:

  • Give us a couple of days' notice where you can.
  • It's best to tune a piano a week or two after it settles in.
  • The ULEZ and Congestion Charge, built into your quote.
  • Tell us about stairs and tight turns up front.

Every piano move is quoted for your exact job, in writing, before you book.

The moving company for your London move

Pianos need real movers, so we bring our own trained team and a padded moving van. We're the company doing the lift, not a go-between.

We protect and manoeuvre uprights and grands through doors and stairs, then strap and pad them in the moving van for the trip across London.

A couple of days is ideal, so we can plan the right gear and team. We'll always try to help with shorter notice, so it's worth a call on 07713 199 263.

It's a good idea. A piano settles into a new spot over a week or two, so tuning it after that usually gives the best result.
