Professional & Experienced Piano Movers
Safe Piano Relocation for Homes, Studios, & Concert Venues
Why Engage Us?
Moving a piano requires specialised handling, precision, and experience. Pianos are heavy yet delicate, with intricate internal components that can be easily damaged if not transported correctly. Whether you’re moving an upright piano from an HDB flat or a grand piano from a commercial event space, here’s why you should consider engaging us:
Damage to Piano
Pianos are not only expensive but also highly sensitive to movement. Even a minor tilt or bump can cause misalignment, affect tuning, or damage internal components like the soundboard and strings. Our professional movers use the right lifting techniques, protective padding, and secure strapping to ensure your piano arrives in perfect condition.
Damage to Property
Given their weight and bulk, pianos are difficult to navigate through doorways, hallways, and staircases. Without proper handling, they can cause dents in floors, scratched walls, or even structural damage. Our experienced team combines careful lifting techniques with the use of specialised tools and protective padding to prevent costly accidents.
Injury Prevention
Pianos can weigh anywhere from 130kg to over 500kg, making them extremely difficult to move without professional help. Attempting to move one without the proper technique or manpower can lead to serious injuries or property damage. Our trained team ensures a safe move by distributing weight evenly and executing controlled movements.
Specialised Equipment
Unlike regular household items, pianos require specialised moving equipment to prevent accidents. We use a combination of tools including dollies, skid boards, lifting straps, and protective covers to ensure safe transportation. Our team is trained to navigate tight spaces, narrow corridors, and staircases without causing harm to the instrument or surrounding property.
Urban Moving Expertise
Singapore’s urban landscape presents unique logistical challenges when moving large items. From securing lift access in HDBs and condominiums to navigating landed properties with narrow stairways, our experienced movers plan every step to avoid unexpected complications. We also coordinate with building management to comply with moving regulations and restrictions.
Efficient, Hassle-Free
We handle the entire piano relocation process from start to finish, including the heavy lifting, transportation, and setup at your new location. From careful wrapping to final positioning, every step is managed with precision, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum convenience for you.
Our Piano Moving Process
We understand that your piano is a treasured belonging with both sentimental and monetary value. It’s often an extension of your artistry. That’s why we follow a meticulous six-step process to ensure it is handled with the utmost care, from assessment to final placement. With our expertise, your piano will be relocated safely and securely, giving you complete peace of mind.
Free Consultation & Assessment
Every piano move starts with a detailed consultation. We assess key factors such as the piano’s type, size, weight, and current location. Important considerations include staircase access, lift availability, tight corners, or uneven flooring. This helps us plan the safest and most efficient route to move your piano without risk of damage.
Preparation & Protection
Before moving, we carefully wrap the piano with high-quality protective padding and secure all moving parts, including the lid and pedals. For grand pianos, we disassemble necessary components, such as the legs and music rack, to ensure safe handling and transport.
Safe & Secure Lifting
Our team uses proper lifting techniques and specialised equipment like piano dollies, skid boards, and heavy-duty straps to carefully move the piano out of your space and onto the transport vehicle. Whether it’s navigating stairs, tight hallways, or narrow doorways, we ensure that both the piano and surrounding property remain damage-free.
Secure & Stable Transport
Pianos require careful handling even while in transit. We secure your piano with heavy-duty straps and protective padding to prevent movement and vibrations, ensuring it stays stable throughout the journey with minimal risk of damage.
Placement & Setup
Upon arrival at your new location, we carefully unload and position the piano exactly where you want it. If disassembly was required, we reassemble all components with precision. Our team ensures that the piano is levelled and stable, ready for use.
Post-Move Check & Clean-Up
We conduct a final inspection to ensure your piano is in pristine condition after transport. Any protective materials used during the move are cleared away, leaving your space clean and clutter-free. If needed, we can also advise on post-move tuning and maintenance.
