Plan Your Move

Share your item list, both addresses and the access at each property. The scope and availability need to be confirmed before booking.

Access

Tell us about stairs, lifts, narrow closes, loading bays, parking restrictions, long carries and any timed key handover.

Items

List bulky, heavy, fragile or awkward items. Photos and dimensions help assess the handling and crew required.

Preparation

Pack loose items, label boxes by room and flag anything that needs dismantling. Discuss unusual or specialist requirements before booking.

How to arrange your move

    Start a quote with collection and destination details, your inventory and the help you need. Add stairs, parking, large items and any extra stops.

    Check the available options, price and included work. For unusual access or specialist items, contact the team before confirming.

  3. Step 3

    Confirm and prepare

    Complete the booking and keep the confirmation details. If the items, addresses or access change, contact the team so the plan and price can be reviewed.

Piano Moving — Common Questions

Can you move a piano upstairs?
Possibly, but it must be assessed before booking. Stair width, turns, landing space, and instrument type all affect whether it is safe.
Should I tune the piano after moving?
Many owners arrange tuning after the instrument settles in its new environment. Ask your piano tuner for timing advice.
Do you move digital pianos?
Yes, where the item, weight, and access are suitable. Digital pianos still need careful protection during transport.
