What types of pianos do you move in Australia?

We move all types and sizes of pianos across Australia, including upright, grand, baby grand, digital and antique classic pianos.

How much does piano removal cost in Australia?

Our piano removals start at $350 per hour. The final price depends on your piano type and size, the stairs and access at both ends, the distance of the move, and any equipment or storage needed, so there is no single fixed rate. For an exact, all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees, call 0468 001 438 or email info@movingchamps.com.au.

Do you provide piano removals all across Australia?

Yes. We cover all major cities and regional areas across Australia, from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane to Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and Hobart. We run several trained piano-moving teams with the same expertise, so you get the same careful handling and professionalism no matter where you are located or how large the move is.

Do I need to tune my piano after it has been moved?

Yes, we recommend having your piano tuned after a move. Relocating changes the temperature, humidity and position of the instrument, which can shift the strings and affect the pitch. Most piano technicians suggest letting it settle in its new home for about two weeks before tuning. Our crews handle every piano with trolleys, padding and secure strapping to minimise movement in transit, and a professional tune afterwards keeps it sounding its best.

Do I need to arrange my own insurance for my piano move?

Yes. Because we do not provide goods-in-transit or contents insurance, we recommend you arrange your own transit insurance with a third-party insurer before moving day if you want your piano covered. On every job we still protect your piano with padded blankets, shrink wrap, piano trolleys and properly strapped loads to keep it safe in transit and in storage.

The Oliphants Moving Champs customer

Moving Champs was able to move one bulky item for us with only a couple of days' notice and at a competitive price. The removalists were incredibly professional, taking care with both the item and the walls of our narrow hallway. Nik from the customer sales team was also incredibly patient with fielding our questions on the day of the move. Thanks so much for your assistance!

Great service. I contacted Moving Champs for an online quote and received a callback within 15 minutes. The estimate I was initially provided was accurate. Ekam and Dogra were our removalists and worked very hard to get the job completed on time.
