"Moved a piano for me from Melbourne to Sydney. Everything went well. Very friendly. I took one star off for Communication because the quote to move the piano said it did not include heavy objects such as pianos. So I nearly didn't call them back to clarify. Glad I did. That was just boilerplate text they forgot to remove. Other than that no problems."

Frequently asked questions
Looking to move your piano locally? Various factors can impact the cost, such as piano type, size, distance, accessibility, and additional services. On average, moving an upright piano can range anywhere from $150 to $400. For baby grand or grand pianos, the cost usually falls between $300 to $800, depending on the size and complexity of the move. Find a Mover can connect you with licensed piano movers to obtain multiple piano moving quotes. Don't let your piano become a source of stress – leave it to the piano experts.
Moving an upright piano typically requires two people as a minimum. One person can stabilise and guide the piano while the other person handles the lifting and maneuvering. However, if the piano is particularly heavy or if there are obstacles, stairs, or tight spaces to navigate, additional manpower may be needed. If you're unsure about the specific requirements for your piano move, it's advisable to consult professional piano movers. They can assess the situation and provide the appropriate number of movers needed to handle the job effectively.
Pianos can be awkward to move and transporting a piano by laying it on its back is generally not recommended. Pianos are intricate and fragile instruments that have an uneven weight distribution. Placing them flat on their back can create excess pressure on delicate internal components such as the soundboard, strings, and hammers. This can result in misalignment, warping, or even breakage, leading to costly repairs. To ensure safe transportation, it's best to use professional piano moving techniques and equipment and transport it in an upright position. Specialized dollies and padding ensure proper handling of the weight and dimensions of the piano, providing peace of mind and protection.
Moving a piano may seem doable, but it's generally not advised unless you have the right tools, expertise, and experience. Pianos are fragile and weigh a tonne, making improper handling a major risk for both the instrument and your personal safety, as well as your property. That's why it's best to opt for professional piano movers who specialize in safely and securely moving these delicate instruments.
Moving a smaller upright or digital piano can be done by two people, but if the piano is bigger or heavier and weights over 150KG, there could be added complexities and it's best to have more than two people to ensure a safer and smoother move. Pianos are delicate and can be damaged if not handled correctly during the lifting and moving process. For peace of mind, we recommend hiring professional piano movers as they have the knowledge, experience, and tools needed to ensure a safe and secure move for your instrument.
If you own a piano and need to move it, you might be wondering whether or not to hire a specialist. We highly recommend that you hire professional piano movers, due to their specialised knowledge and equipment. With a professional team, protective coverings, padding, and straps will be used to keep your piano safe. They'll also ensure that your delicate instrument is secured correctly during the move. Plus, reputable piano movers often carry insurance coverage to protect your piano and surrounding property from any unforeseen accidents. With their expert help, your beloved piano will be in good hands.
The weight of an upright piano can vary depending on its size, model, and construction. Upright pianos typically weigh between 150 kilograms to 300 kilograms.
- A Studio or Console Upright weigh between 150KG to 250KG. These are smaller upright pianos commonly used in homes and practice studios.
- A Professional Upright can weigh between 250KG to 300KG or more. These larger upright pianos, often found in music institutions or performance venues.
Did you know that the heaviest part of an upright piano is often the cast iron harp or plate? That's because this large frame holds the strings and supports the entire instrument. When moving an upright piano, it's crucial to handle the harp with special care due to its weight and fragile composition. That's why we recommend leaving it to the professional piano movers, who have the expertise and equipment needed to move heavy piano components safely.
Playing your piano after a move is generally safe, but there are some crucial factors to consider for a smooth transition. Your piano is sensitive to temperature and humidity changes, so allow for acclimation time upon arrival. Check for stability of components, such as the legs and pedals, to prevent any unwanted tipping or rocking. And lastly, a professional piano tuner can help ensure that your piano is in proper tune and ready for action after the move.
