Introduction
Moving a piano isn’t like moving ordinary furniture. It’s a delicate process that requires skill, precision, and the right equipment. Whether you own an upright, baby grand, or concert grand piano, finding a trusted piano removalist in Melbourne is crucial to ensure your instrument stays safe and undamaged.
At Piano Movers Melbourne, we specialise exclusively in piano transport, storage, hire, and tuning across Melbourne and Victoria. Our trained removalists understand the structure and fragility of pianos from the soundboard to the pedals — and we treat every move with the care your valuable instrument deserves.
Why Choose a Specialist Piano Removalist in Melbourne?
Pianos are heavy, complex, and highly sensitive to temperature, movement, and impact. A standard moving company may not have the equipment or experience needed to handle such a unique item. Choosing a specialist ensures your piano is protected every step of the way.
1. Expertise and Training
Our team has decades of combined experience in piano transport. Every mover is trained to dismantle, wrap, lift, and transport pianos safely through all types of Melbourne homes — from heritage terraces in Carlton to modern apartments in Southbank.
2. Specialised Equipment
We use professional trolleys, ramps, stair-climbers, lifting straps, and climate-controlled trucks. This ensures the piano stays upright, balanced, and vibration-free throughout the journey.
3. Fully Insured Services
Accidents are rare, but your peace of mind matters. That’s why our piano moving services come with full insurance coverage, protecting both your instrument and your property during the move.
4. Fixed, Transparent Quotes
Forget about hidden costs. We provide upfront, all-inclusive quotes based on access, piano size, and distance — so you know exactly what to expect before the move begins.

Common Questions About Piano Removals in Melbourne
Q1. How much does it cost to move a piano in Melbourne?
The cost depends on the piano’s type, location access, and distance. Upright pianos are generally easier and more affordable to move than grand pianos. We provide fixed quotes upfront, so you’ll know the total cost before we begin.
Q2. Can you move pianos up or down stairs?
Yes. Our removalists are trained to move pianos safely up or down staircases using stair-climbing equipment and lifting techniques that protect both the instrument and your property.
Q3. Do I need to prepare anything before the movers arrive?
We recommend clearing hallways, removing rugs or obstacles, and securing pets or children away from the moving area. Our team handles all lifting and wrapping — you just need to provide access to the property.
Q4. Will my piano need tuning after the move?
Yes, most pianos do. Moving and changes in humidity or temperature can affect tuning. It’s best to wait 2–3 weeks after relocation before having it professionally tuned.
Q5. Are you insured?
Absolutely. All piano moves are fully insured, covering your piano and property during transport and handling.
