Piano Moving Services – Expert Care for Your Instrument

Pianos are not just furniture—they are valuable, delicate instruments that require specialist handling. One wrong move can damage the internal mechanisms, scratch the finish, or even injure the movers.

At Easy Movers Ltd, our trained piano moving specialists have the experience, equipment, and technique to transport your piano safely, whether it's an upright, grand, or digital piano.

Why Pianos Need Specialist Movers

Pianos are among the most challenging items to move. Here's why:

  • Extreme Weight: Upright pianos weigh 200-300kg; grand pianos can exceed 500kg.

  • Awkward Shape: The center of gravity makes them unstable and difficult to maneuver through doorways and staircases.

  • Fragile Internals: The strings, hammers, and soundboard are extremely sensitive to jolts and vibration.

  • Valuable Finish: High-gloss and polished wood surfaces scratch easily without proper protection.

General movers without piano experience risk serious damage—or injury. Our team is specifically trained in piano relocation.

Our Piano Moving Process

Step 1

Pre-Move Assessment

We assess your piano type, location, and route. We measure doorways, staircases, and hallways to plan the safest extraction and delivery path.

Step 2

Professional Protection

Your piano is wrapped in thick padded blankets and secured with specialist straps (not ropes, which can damage the finish). Keys are locked, and the lid is secured to prevent internal damage.

Step 3

Safe Loading

We use heavy-duty piano dollies and skid boards designed to distribute weight evenly. For stairs, we employ lifting straps and additional crew members to control descent and ascent safely.

Step 4

Secure Transport

Your piano is strapped into position in our van to prevent any movement during transit. We drive carefully, avoiding sudden braking or sharp turns.

Types of Pianos We Move

Upright Pianos

The most common domestic piano. We move all sizes, from compact uprights (110cm tall) to full studio uprights (130cm+). We can navigate tight staircases and narrow hallways safely.

Grand Pianos

Baby grands, parlor grands, and concert grands all require specialized handling. We can dismantle the legs and lyre pedal if needed to fit through doorways, then reassemble at the destination.

Digital Pianos

Lighter than acoustic pianos but still valuable. We protect the keys, screen, and finish with soft covers and transport them upright to avoid pressure on delicate components.

James D., London
Absolutely brilliant service from start to finish!

"I was let down by another company at the last minute and called Easy Movers Ltd in a panic. They managed to fit me in for a next-day slot for my studio flat move. The driver was friendly, helped me load everything quickly, and got my stuff to the new place in record time. No hidden fees, just great honest service. Will definitely use them again for my next move."

Sarah & Mark T.
Lifesavers! Fast, efficient, and great value.

"We were dreading moving our 4-bedroom house, especially with two kids and a dog, but Easy Movers Ltd made it look easy. The team arrived exactly on time, were incredibly polite, and worked non-stop. They wrapped all our furniture with care—not a single scratch on anything! They even reassembled the kids' bunk beds in the new house so they could sleep that night. Worth every penny for the peace of mind. Highly recommended!"

Eleanor R., Bristol
Professional care for my fragile items.

"I needed to move a vintage upright piano and some antique furniture to storage, so I was very nervous about who to trust. The crew from Easy Movers Ltd clearly knew what they were doing. They had all the right equipment—ramps, heavy-duty covers, and straps—and handled the piano with absolute precision. Everything arrived at the storage unit in perfect condition. A very professional and reassuring team."
