You are looking at this site because you need your piano moved. You value your piano and want it moved by the best company and at a reasonable price. It’s likely your piano is very precious to you, with a high monetary or sentimental value. Whatever the circumstances, you want the move carried out by professionals and by a recommended company with a background you can trust.
Most modern pianos are now finished in a high gloss polyester finish, which is quite durable when it is in your home, however, this finish can be easily scratched, dented or chipped when moved, but it’s not so easy to repair.
And it’s not just the casework that can suffer, most pianos will require tuning after they have been moved, but a badly handled piano can be unplayable as a result of inexperienced moving.

We have many members of staff who have enjoyed a long-term career at Piano Logistics.
Equipment and vehicles
Our equipment has mostly been designed by ourselves and it does differ from the standard piano moving equipment, giving extra protection.
