What our piano moves include

Pianos need the right gear and enough hands. This is what is included when we move an upright or grand piano for you.

Upright piano moves

Wrapped, strapped and moved on a piano trolley, including stairs where safe.

Baby grand and grand pianos

Legs, pedal lyre and lid are removed and the body is skid-boarded and padded.

Stair and access assessment

We assess doorways, stairs, turns and floors before the move, and tell you if extra crew is needed.

Floor and wall protection

Runners, corner guards and sliding boards protect timber floors and walls.

Local, intercity and interstate

We move pianos across Adelaide, to regional SA and interstate.

Placement at the new address

We position the piano where you want it, away from heaters, windows and damp walls.

Why pianos need specialist movers

A piano can weigh from about 200 kg for a small upright to over 400 kg for a grand, with a delicate soundboard, strings and action inside. A poorly-handled piano can be damaged, and so can floors, walls and the people carrying it. Specialist crews use the right skids, straps and covers, and know how to work stairs and tight turns safely.

Piano moving tips

Clear the path, measure doorways and stairwells, and tell us about steps, gravel, sloping driveways and floor type. Keep the piano lid closed and remove items from the top. Allow the piano to settle for two to four weeks before tuning, and keep it away from direct sunlight, heaters and air conditioners.

How our piano removalists works

  1. Tell us about your move

    Call or send the short form with your addresses, your items and your preferred date.

  2. Get a fixed quote

    We give you a clear price based on volume, access, distance and timing, and explain what is included.

  3. We wrap, load and move

    Our crew wraps and pads your furniture, loads it in a sensible order and secures it in the truck.

  4. Delivered and set up

    We unload into the right rooms, reassemble beds and tables and check with you before we leave.

Pricing: what affects the cost

Every move is priced individually. Volume, distance, access and timing all change the quote, so we give you a fixed written price before you book.

Volume

The amount of furniture and boxes decides the truck size and crew.

Distance

Longer trips add driving time, fuel and driver hours.

Access

Stairs, lifts, long carries and narrow streets add time.

Timing

Weekends, month-end and school holidays book out first.

Special items

Pianos, pool tables and heavy items need extra crew and equipment.

Packing

Packing and unpacking add labour and materials.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about piano removalists.

Do you move grand pianos?

Yes. We move upright, baby grand and full grand pianos using the right skids, straps and covers.

Can you move a piano up stairs?

Often yes, but it depends on the stairs, turns and piano weight. We assess access before quoting, and bring extra crew if needed.

Should I tune my piano after moving?

Yes. We recommend waiting two to four weeks for the instrument to settle, then booking a tuning.

Can a piano be moved interstate?

Yes. Pianos can travel on our interstate runs alongside your furniture.

How many movers does a piano need?

Our terms require four movers with specialised equipment for pianos. If you book fewer, you need to arrange additional help on the day.
