About Our Piano Removal & Disposal Service
A piano nobody plays is one of the heaviest, most awkward items in any home — an upright can weigh 300 to 500 pounds, and a grand far more, with a cast-iron plate inside that makes it dangerously top-heavy. We remove uprights, baby grands, grands and old organs safely, with the crew and equipment to handle the weight on stairs and through doorways. We protect your floors and walls on the way out and dispose of the instrument responsibly, recycling the metal and wood. If the piano is still playable, we will help point it toward donation instead.

Piano removal is priced as a specialty heavy-lift job, not by simple volume, because of the weight, the crew required and the access. Stairs, narrow doorways and grand pianos add to the price — we confirm it before we lift.
We assess the route in advance and bring the right number of people and equipment for the weight. Stairs and tight turns are manageable but must be planned, so describe the layout when you book.
We recover the cast-iron plate and metal hardware for scrap recycling and the wood where possible; playable pianos can be directed to donation.
