Getting rid of a piano nobody plays
Old pianos are surprisingly hard to give away. Many need expensive restoration, and moving one takes more than two strong friends: uprights commonly weigh several hundred pounds, and grands weigh more, with most of that weight in a cast-iron plate.
Our crews plan the route first: doorways, turns, stairs and what's underfoot. We use piano dollies, straps and padding to protect your floors and walls. Pianos that are still playable can sometimes find a new home; those that can't are taken apart so the wood, metal and iron plate can be recycled.
The same crews handle other heavy, awkward pieces: pool tables (slate tops and all), treadmills, ellipticals, weight benches and home gyms.

Piano removal cost
Piano removal depends on the type of piano, the stairs and the route out, so we quote it from a few photos rather than a list price. Send a photo of the piano and of the path to the door, and you'll get a firm number before we schedule.

Send photos for a pricePlanning a piano move-out
Every piano job starts with photos of the piano and the route out. We bring a piano board, straps and enough people for the weight and the stairs. Grands are taken apart first (legs, lyre and lid), then wrapped and moved.
What happens to an old piano
Playable pianos can sometimes be passed on. Others are dismantled so the wood, steel strings and cast-iron plate can be recycled.
Help us plan the route
- Photograph the route. Show us the piano, the doorways and any stairs on the way out.
- Measure the doorways. Grands may need legs and lid removed. Measurements help us plan.
- Check for a buyer first. If the piano is playable, a local school or church may want it.
