Piano moving in Strathmore
Piano movers for Strathmore family homes
Strathmore is mostly established family homes: solid post-war brick, some earlier weatherboards and a growing number of large two storey rebuilds. A lot of houses sit up off the street with a run of concrete or brick steps to the front door, and on the streets that fall toward the Moonee Ponds Creek the blocks can slope more than you would expect.
Those front steps are the heart of most Strathmore moves. We count them, check how wide they are and whether there is a handrail or a turn, then bring the right trolley and enough crew so the piano is controlled from above and below the whole way. In the new two storey homes, the question is usually whether the piano is going upstairs, and we will give you an honest answer about that before moving day.
Many of the pianos here are family instruments bought decades ago for children to learn on and now moving to the next generation. We treat them as exactly that: padded, strapped and placed carefully, with a tuner recommendation if you would like one once the piano has settled.

Read them all on GoogleThis company 's service was wonderful. On time courteous and efficient. They took great care on moving my upright piano down a tricky flight of stairs. I would highly recommend them
Gabriel and Mich were fantastic! They responded promptly to my inquiries, arrived right on time, and moved our baby grand piano with expert care. They're friendly, experienced, and reasonably priced. Highly recommend!
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!!
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!
I couldn't be happier with the piano moving service from Gabrielle and his team. Clear communication, on time, efficient and handled the piano with great care. Thank you!!
Excellent job on a delivery piano to our apartment. Great communication and friendly service. Would recommend it everyone without any hesitation.
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!
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!
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
Questions
Piano moving in Strathmore: FAQs
Our house has about ten steps to the front door. Is that okay?
Yes. Steps are a normal part of piano moving. Tell us how many there are and whether they turn, and we will bring the right trolley and crew.
Can you move a piano upstairs in a new two storey home?
Often, yes, depending on the stair width and turns. Describe the staircase or send a photo and we will tell you honestly what is possible.
Can you recommend a tuner after the move?
Yes. Pianos are best tuned a couple of weeks after a move, once they have settled, and we can point you to a tuner.
