Why choose us

Piano moving needs specialist skill

A piano can weigh from 150 kg to over 600 kg. Moving one the wrong way risks permanent damage to the instrument and serious injury. We do it properly, every time.

Specialist equipment

Piano boards, skid boards and heavy-duty strapping — never improvised from standard removal kit.

Fully insured

Goods-in-transit cover from the moment we touch it until it’s placed in its new home.

Trained movers

Proper piano handling, from compact uprights to full concert grands.

Stairs & tight spaces

Every route is assessed in advance, so narrow stairs and tight corners are planned for.

Enclosed vans

Pianos travel enclosed and secured, protected from weather on the way.

Fixed pricing

Priced on piano type, access and distance — what you’re quoted is what you pay.

Piano types

All types of piano, moved safely

  • Upright piano — 150–270 kg, moved on piano boards with proper strapping
  • Baby grand — 180–280 kg, legs removed, lid and case padded, 3+ movers
  • Grand piano — 260–500 kg, custom padding and route planning
  • Concert grand — 400–600 kg, full specialist kit and extra crew
  • Digital piano — 30–100 kg, keys and electronics protected
  • Player piano — 200–300 kg, extra mechanical parts handled with care

Never move a piano without specialists

The wrong technique can permanently damage the soundboard, strings and hammers — and cause serious injury. Our trained team uses proper boards, padding and strapping on every job.

Farouk was amazing, stepping in at short notice when my booked removal company let me down. Excellent packing. Farouk & his team were very tidy, polite & considerate. Would strongly recommend this company!

We used Reliable Moving Services for our 3-bedroom house move and couldn’t be happier with the service. Farouk and his team were professional, friendly and extremely careful with all our belongings. I had quite a lot of extra items that I had forgotten to include in the original booking, but Farouk was very understanding and didn’t charge me anything extra. The whole move was handled efficiently and made a stressful day so much easier. Excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommended — thank you Farouk and the team!

FAQ

Piano removals — common questions

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

Uprights start from £120, baby grands from £180 and grand pianos from £220. Concert grands are priced individually. All prices are fixed and all-inclusive.

Should I tune my piano after moving?

Yes, but wait 2–4 weeks so it can settle into its new room. We don’t tune pianos ourselves — book your usual tuner or a local one once it has settled.

Can you move a grand piano up or down stairs?

Yes. We remove the legs and pedal lyre, use piano boards on the stairs and plan the route in advance. There is no limit on the number of floors, even without a lift.

Do you move grand pianos as well as uprights?

Yes — we move uprights, baby grands and full grand pianos, from flats and terraced houses to larger homes, with the same careful process for each.

Is my piano insured during the move?

Yes — goods-in-transit cover is included, with enhanced cover available for high-value instruments.

How much notice do you need?

1–2 weeks for uprights and 2–4 weeks for grands. Shorter notice is often possible — just ask.

Do you move pianos long distance?

Yes, anywhere in the UK, in an enclosed van at a fixed, all-inclusive price.
