Piano moving in Croydon
Piano movers at the foot of the Dandenongs
Croydon is where the suburbs start climbing toward the Dandenong Ranges, and you can feel it on moving day. Croydon North and Croydon Hills in particular have plenty of homes on sloping blocks, split level houses with a few steps between rooms, long driveways and garden paths that are a mix of pavers, gravel and lawn.
None of that stops a piano move, but it does change the plan. We ask about the gradient and the surface from the truck to the door, how many steps there are and whether the piano is going up or down inside the house. On soft or uneven ground we lay a path and slow things right down, because control matters far more than speed.
Many pianos in Croydon are family uprights and older pianolas that have lived in the same home for years. They are heavy and their casters are often past it, so we lift them onto a proper trolley, strap them, and carry them where wheels would struggle.
Main Street to Croydon Hills
We cover all of Croydon, Croydon North and Croydon Hills, plus Kilsyth, Mooroolbark and Ringwood, and moves to the hills and across Melbourne.
Wet weather
Hills weather can turn quickly. If it is pouring, we would rather wait it out than rush a piano across a wet path.
- Sloping blocks and split level homes
- Gravel paths, lawn and long driveways
- Heavy older uprights and pianolas

Read them all on GoogleGabriel 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!
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.
Gabriel came and moved my Piano from Geelong to Ballarat. 25 steps at the drop off and I had not seen the place and thought it was flat, Gabriel did it no fuss and only for a small extra fee. Life saver and a great bloke
Gabriel and his team were friendly, professional, punctual and did an outstanding job. They moved my upright piano into my new apartment up on the second floor. It was a tight and difficult stairwell and they completed the job perfectly. I highly recommend Gabriel and the team at Victorian Piano Transport!
These guys are brilliant. Gabriel moved my (extremely heavy) German piano with care and ease. The previous movers I used before struggled with this piano – I couldn’t believe how calm, efficient and seamless the whole experience was with Victorian Piano Transport. Gabriel’s an absolute pro and I will definitely be calling him for any future piano moves! Thanks again Gabriel and team.
Gabriel and his team at Victorian Piano Transport are amazing. They went above and beyond to move three of our pianos to our music school. They transported the pianos to our new location and used a crane to safely get the pianos to the first floor of our building. Very fair prices as well. Would definitely recommend.
Gabriel and Zak were absolutely wonderful, polite and intelligent. Very careful, caring about my 2 Steinways to be moved from rental property to our renovated house with steps in both places. The price was very good. The service was excellent. I would highly recommend this company. If you are looking for a piano move-this is the one to go with. I did my search before I have chosen this one, no regret. Many thanks again, Gabriel
Had a piano picked up from house after selling it this week. Have to say Gabriel was amazing! Great attention to handling a Kawai upright piano with care and fantastic client service. If you are after a piano transport service in Melbourne this is the one for you!!
It was a delight dealing with Gabriel. He and his partner did a great job putting our upright piano in its place. They were punctual, friendly and very professional. If I ever need a piano moved I wouldn’t call anyone else.
Gabriel moved our precious old family upright piano from Melbourne to Horsham. Very thorough service. Great communication re times and completely reliable. Thanks for the care and service Gabriel.
The communication from start to finish was A+. A steep driveway and tricky stairs, and the guys made it look easy! I would definitely recommend their service to anyone wanting their piano moved with confidence. Thanks again!
Gabriel helped to organise my piano move from Camberwell to Wartook (Grampians) and was a pleasure to deal with; professional, courteous and understanding and got the job done quick with no dramas. Piano is in new home, safe and sound. I'm glad I didn't do it myself!
Gabriel and his team were very professional and respectful in moving my upright Kawai piano on a 45’ slope. He made it look so easy (when it’s not) and proactively looked out for uneven grounds and gave advice on how to maneuver the piano to his team every step of the way. 10/10 for service and professionalism. Highly recommend VPT!
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+++
Questions
Piano moving in Croydon: FAQs
Our path is gravel and grass. Can you still move the piano?
Yes. Tell us about the surface and we will bring boards and enough crew to carry the piano where a trolley cannot roll safely.
What happens if it rains on moving day?
We protect the piano from the weather and, if it is pouring, we wait it out rather than rush it across a wet path.
Do you go further up into the Dandenong Ranges?
Yes. Hills moves just need a little more planning around access and weather. Tell us the address and we will talk it through.
