Piano Removal
in Raleigh, NC
An upright piano weighs 400 to 800 pounds and almost never fits through a standard doorframe without the legs off. We handle the disassembly, the stair work, and the load — and we've done enough of these to know exactly where things go wrong.
Everything On This List
Standard upright and studio uprights, typically 400 to 600 lbs depending on age and build.
We do not remove grand pianos. The size, weight, and disassembly requirements are outside our scope — contact a specialty piano mover.
We do not remove baby grand pianos. Call a dedicated piano moving company for grands of any size.
Older self-playing pianos, which often weigh significantly more than standard uprights.
Benches, covers, sheet music, and anything else associated with the piano.
Smaller older spinets — lighter than uprights but still require the right approach on stairs.
Console-style uprights common in homes from the 1960s through 1990s.
The piano plus bench, books, and any related items removed in one visit.

Why Customers Choose Us
Price Is Based on What the Job Actually Takes
Piano removal pricing isn't flat-rate. A spinet on the ground floor with a clear path to the truck is a different job than a full upright in a second-floor bedroom at the end of a narrow hallway. We look at the type, the location, and the stairs, then give you a number before anyone puts a hand on the instrument.
Upright Pianos Weigh 400 to 800 Pounds — This Is Not a DIY Job
Upright pianos typically run 400 to 800 lbs depending on age and build. Moving one without the right equipment and experience causes injuries and property damage. Our crew uses piano dollies, furniture straps, and stair-handling techniques built specifically for instruments this heavy. Note: we do not remove grand or baby grand pianos.
The Legs Come Off — That's Standard, Not Optional
Most upright pianos can't go through a standard interior doorframe with the legs on. It's not a problem, it's just part of the job. The legs and pedal assembly come off, the cabinet goes through on its side, and everything gets reassembled on the truck. Crews that skip this step are the ones that damage doorframes.
We Pad What Needs Padding and We Go Slow on Stairs
Hardwood floors, carpet at stair edges, painted door casings — all of it is vulnerable when 600 lbs is moving through the room. We wrap the instrument, pad the corners, and take the stairs one step at a time. Speed is not the goal on a piano removal.
