    Book and pay safely

What to check before hiring

  • Insurance that names the item and its value
  • Experience with the type of piano or item, and how they will manage stairs
  • Whether tuning after the move is something they recommend or arrange

What we check: Every removal company has shown photo ID and public liability insurance of at least £1m. The profile also shows Goods in transit insurance when the pro has it.

Piano moves: questions people ask

Can a normal removal company move a piano?

Some can, with the right kit and crew. Specialists move pianos daily and know how to handle stairs and tight turns. Ask what experience each bidder has.

Does a piano need tuning after moving?

Usually yes, after a couple of weeks in its new room. Moving itself rarely knocks it out of tune; the change of temperature and humidity does.

How do they get it upstairs?

With a piano skid, straps and enough people, or a stair climber. Send photos of the stairs when you post so bids are accurate.

Can they move a safe?

Yes, the same equipment and care apply. Tell the pro the approximate weight and whether it is bolted down.
