They sent me couple of prices from local removals. I moved from Richmond to Twickenham. It wasn`t much to be carried, but there was a lot of stairs and waking at my new address. The people who came to do my Richmond move were hard working and nothing was too much for them.It was easy to get removals, so will be using again if needed

🔄 Our Piano Moving Process
Every move is different, but experienced London piano movers follow a proven step-by-step process to ensure safety and precision:
1. Assessment & Quotation
Once we receive your details, trusted piano moving firms will assess your piano type, property layout, floor level, and access points to prepare accurate, fixed-price quotes.
2. Preparation & Protection
On moving day, your piano is carefully wrapped in padded blankets, secured with heavy-duty straps, and placed on a piano dolly or skid board for safe handling.
3. Safe Removal & Transport
Using tail-lift vans and, if needed, furniture hoists, movers navigate stairs, narrow hallways, and tight turns. All vehicles are fitted for secure piano transport to avoid shifting during transit.
4. Delivery & Placement
Once delivered, your piano is carefully unwrapped and positioned in its new spot, with attention to acoustics and your preferences.
