Piano moving in Brunswick West

Piano movers who know Brunswick West

Brunswick West is a suburb of contrasts for a piano mover. On one street you’ll find a Californian bungalow with three front steps and a wide hallway. Around the corner there’s a 1960s walk-up block where the only way in is a concrete stairwell with a landing halfway. Both are very doable, but they need different gear and a different plan, so that’s what we ask about first.

Walk-up flats are where general removalists tend to come unstuck. An upright piano weighs somewhere around 200 to 300 kilograms, and a stairwell leaves no room for guesswork. We use a stair-rated trolley, strap the piano so it can’t shift, and keep enough hands on it that nobody is taking the weight alone.

Plenty of Brunswick West pianos are heading somewhere new: a first apartment in the city, a share house in Coburg, a family home further out. Wherever it’s going, it travels upright, strapped and padded in our truck, and is placed exactly where you want it at the other end.

Melville Road to the creek

We cover all of Brunswick West, from Melville Road and Union Street across to the Moonee Ponds Creek, plus moves to anywhere in Melbourne or regional Victoria.

Gentle with older uprights

Older family uprights often have tired casters and loose fallboards. We lock the lid, protect the pedals and lift the piano onto a trolley rather than rolling it on wheels that were never meant to travel.

How it works

How a Brunswick West piano move works

  1. Quote and access check

    Tell us the piano, both addresses and any stairs. We confirm a fixed price and the right crew size.

  2. Protect the room

    Floors and door frames are covered before the piano moves an inch.

  3. Wrap and secure

    Lids locked, legs and pedals removed where needed, the case padded and strapped to a skid board.

  4. Careful transport

    Loaded by ramp or tail lift and tied down upright in our padded vehicle.

  5. Placement

    Carried in, reassembled and set exactly where you want it, level and steady.

  6. Final check

    We check keys, pedals and casters with you, and can arrange a tuner once it settles.

Highly recommended. We hired Gabriel to move our Baby Grand Piano as he had great reviews and he did not disappoint. It was raining but they waited it out and transported the piano with great care. They were punctual, friendly, excellent communication and a great price. Thank you Gabriel and team. A+++

Sought the help Gabriel and his team for moving an upright piano looking at the great reviews. He did not disappoint, it was raining heavily but the job was done professionally and with no hassles. Stairs, no problem; rain, no problem, consider the job well done. Thanks much to Gabriel and his team for the help.

Both Gabriel and Gin very professional, it was a pleasure to see these guys arrive on time, carefully delivering our piano to our home with kit gloves, this meant a lot to us and they were very sensitive to our requests. No trouble at all to get the job done perfectly. I highly recommend this company to whomever needs a piano removed or delivered. Andrea.

Andrew E.Google review · 2022

Very happy that I got Gabriel and Pete to move my Yamaha U3. The move required over lawn, outdoor stairs, 6 internal stairs, and tight spaces. They did a fabulous job. Very happy with the price, service, communication. Definitely recommend.

Victorian Piano Transport provided an exceptional piano moving experience. Incredibly prompt. No nonsense. Gabriel and his team were very careful with the piano during the move as well as floor surfaces in both locations. Competitively priced. Would definitely recommend and would use again.

Just had my dad's precious baby grand piano relocated and the guys did an amazing job. So easy to deal with and highly skilled and professional. We have a large number of steps at our property and they negotiated them with ease and care!!

Robyn K.Google review · Aug 2026

We are incredibly grateful to the team today. Moving an upright piano is no small task, and despite getting stuck in the lift at one point, they remained calm, professional, and absolutely determined to get the job done. They truly worked like heroes to bring our piano safely up to level one! Their strength, persistence, and positive attitude made a stressful situation so much easier for us. Highly recommend — thank you again for your amazing effort!

Excellent job on a delivery piano to our apartment. Great communication and friendly service. Would recommend it everyone without any hesitation.

Louis L.Google review · Mar 2026

I called these guys at 7pm on a Friday evening with an urgent request to move an old upright piano that would have been trashed otherwise. They were able to sort things out for me very quickly and the piano was moved efficiently a few days later. Competitive rate too. Very happy!

TC B.Google review · Feb 2026

Gabriel did an excellent job moving a piano that we had bought. From organising the job to being prompt on the day through to the utmost care in moving the piano. Hopefully we won’t have to move a piano again for a while but I wouldn’t hesitate to give him a call if I had to!

Patrick C.Google review · 2025

These guys did an amazing job of moving our piano in, when all the other movers said it couldn't be done! Well worth the money. They wheeled the piano down a laneway, up a 1m high concrete step and up a steep grassy slope to get it in and no damage to piano at all. Very impressed.

Questions

Piano moving in Brunswick West: FAQs

Can you get a piano up to a first floor walk-up flat?

Usually, yes. Tell us how many steps there are, whether the stairwell turns and if there is a landing. We bring the right trolley and enough crew to carry it safely.

Do you do short moves within Brunswick West?

Yes. Short local moves get the same care as long ones: the piano is wrapped, strapped and placed exactly where you want it.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The type of piano, both addresses and a description of any steps, stairs, lifts or tight turns. Photos of the access always help.
