Piano movers London
The move begins before the piano is lifted.
A piano is heavy, valuable and sensitive to knocks, angles and changes in support. Safe piano transport depends on accurate planning: the piano type and dimensions, stairs, turns, door widths, floor level, parking distance and the destination access all matter.
AJ Movers has completed more than 4,200 piano jobs through its recorded AnyVan work. We handle upright and digital pianos as well as baby grands and grand pianos, selecting the team, protection and moving method around the instrument and the property.
For the most accurate quote, send clear photos of the piano, the route out of the collection property and the route into the delivery property. Include every step, narrow doorway, landing and tight turn. If you are unsure of the model, a photograph of the full piano and any manufacturer label is useful.

Protection, handling and transport.
The piano is protected before being moved through the property. The exact handling method depends on its design, access and route. Our quote will be based on the information supplied, so undisclosed steps or restricted access can affect what is safely possible on the day.
After delivery, allow the instrument to settle in its new environment and ask a qualified piano technician when tuning is appropriate. Transport can affect tuning, particularly when the temperature or humidity changes between locations.

Piano removal questions
Before your piano moves.
How much does a piano removal in London cost?
The price depends on piano type and size, steps, access, parking, distance, team size and required equipment. Photos of both properties are essential for an accurate quote.
Can you move an upright piano up or down stairs?
Many stair moves are possible, but each one must be assessed. Send photos showing the entire staircase, landings, turns, railings and approach.
Do you move baby grand and grand pianos?
Yes, subject to the piano dimensions, access and a suitable plan. Grand instruments need different preparation and handling from upright pianos.
What should I prepare before collection?
Clear the route, remove loose items from the piano, secure pets and arrange parking or access where necessary. We will confirm any additional preparation.
Should the piano be tuned after moving?
A move and a change in temperature or humidity can affect tuning. Ask a qualified piano technician how long the instrument should settle before tuning.
Can you transport a piano outside London?
Yes. We undertake piano moves across the UK and can quote for suitable European routes from or to the UK.
