On-site piano relocation without leaving the building
An internal piano movement is a move that stays inside one property. There is no truck and no road journey. Our crew shifts the piano from one room or floor to another and sets it down exactly where you want it.
We handle upright, baby grand, grand and concert grand pianos. The work ranges from a room change at home before redecorating to a stage reset between rehearsals at a concert hall. Every job is done by trained piano movers using purpose-built equipment.
WHERE WE WORK
Homes, schools, universities and venues
We carry out internal moves in a wide range of buildings. If a piano needs to go to a different spot inside the same property, we can move it.
- Homes and apartments: room changes, renovations, redecorating and new flooring
- Schools, colleges and universities: practice rooms, teaching spaces, recital halls and auditoria
- Concert halls, churches and theatres: stage moves, rehearsal changes and performance turnarounds
- Studios and hotels: photo and film sets, event spaces and function rooms
HOW IT WORKS
Our internal move process
Each move follows the same careful sequence so the piano and your building both stay protected from start to finish.
- Protection and preparation: piano covers, wrap and pads, plus floor protection with runners, boards and corner guards
- Professional equipment: piano skids, dollies, straps, sliders, ramps and stair solutions where appropriate
- Controlled relocation: careful lifting, positioning and placement to the exact location and orientation you choose
- Post-move check: final positioning, pedal clearance check and a tidy workspace left behind
