Piano Removalists
If there were no piano removalists then Chopin, Beethoven and Liszt could only be heard in CDs, radios and television. The equipment is so expensive and fragile that only specialised piano moving specialists should touch it. Piano is also a cumbersome furniture. You need to know how to handle it, dismantle (if necessary) and store it. There are actually 6 major types of pianos:
- Upright
- Pianola
- Electronic Organ
- Baby Grand
- Grand Piano
- Digital
Each type of piano requires different handling and piano moving. In most cases of piano moving the large professional models will be the most expensive to move.
Piano Moving Companies
One of the most professional piano removalists are NPS. They claim to move 150 pianos a week. The company provides service of moving pianos within Victoria or your own home. Additional services include:
- Piano Storage
- Piano Repairs
- Piano Tuning
- Piano Restoration
Piano Movers is another well known company which offers piano removals in Queensland and Victoria. Again, additional services like storage, tuning and repairs can be undertaken with Piano Movers. Another specialist piano carriers are Powell Piano Removals. They operate in most states and thus offer an interstate piano moving service. Most of the above companies are fully covered by an insurance. Powell Piano Removals claims to be insured to up to $250K.
Piano Removals with Any Removalist
You need to decide on the value of your piano before choosing the cheapest option to move.
Most piano removalists will carry pianos and decently store them.
However, for instruments which are of serious value a specialised piano removalist is necessary.
Yes, it can cost 3-4 times as much as the other ordinary removalist but it is covered by a proper insurance and handled by experts.
For lower cost digital pianos - the "Joe-Bloke" house removalists can be sufficient, though.
