A verified local operator with piano-moving experience collects, transports and places it — protected on the day, then settled to rest at the other end.
Good to know
What shapes a piano move.
Uprights vs grands
An upright is handled as one piece; a grand often has its legs and pedal lyre removed and is moved on its side on a padded skid board. The type sets the specialist-handling price — £220 upright, £380 grand.
Stairs, doorways and landings
Floor level, stair turns, narrow doorways and tight landings are the biggest factors. Share photos of anything awkward and it's planned — and priced — before the day, not discovered on it.
Protection and settling
Pianos are wrapped and secured for transport. After a move, let a piano settle for a couple of weeks before you have it tuned — moving and the new room's climate both affect the tuning.
When to get a custom quote
Very heavy grands, upper-floor moves with no lift, or a piano that needs a window or hoist route are best handled via a quick custom quote so the right equipment and crew are confirmed.
Piano removals questions
Common questions on moving a piano, pricing and access.
How much does it cost to move a piano in London?
Piano moves are priced as a specialist item on top of the collection: upright handling starts from £220 and a grand from £380, with floors, access and distance setting the exact fixed total. You see the full price before you book — nothing is added on the day. Tricky grands or difficult access route to a quick custom quote.
Do you move both upright and grand pianos?
Yes — uprights, grands and baby grands, plus digital and electric pianos, keyboards and organs. A grand is usually moved with its legs and pedal lyre removed and secured on a padded skid board; the crew reassembles it at the other end.
Can you move a piano up or down stairs?
Yes — stairs are routine for piano moves, and floor level and any tight turns or narrow doorways go straight into the fixed quote. Share photos of awkward access when you book so the right crew and equipment are matched. Upper floors with no lift are best confirmed via a quick custom quote.
Do you tune the piano after moving it?
No — tuning isn't included, and it's better to wait anyway. Let the piano settle in its new room for around two weeks before booking a tuner, as both the move and the new room's temperature and humidity affect the tuning.
Are your piano movers insured and experienced?
Every operator's identity, vehicle and Goods in Transit cover is checked before they take a Movesmith job, and piano moves are matched to operators with the right specialist handling experience — not the cheapest stranger on a bidding site.
How do I book a piano move?
Add your piano and both addresses when you get a fixed-price quote. For a grand, an upper-floor move with no lift, or anything needing a hoist, use the custom quote form and we'll come back within 2 working hours.
