Piano Delivery Service Cardiff

If you need Piano Delivery Cardiff, Giant Van handles all standard piano types across Cardiff and the surrounding area.

Knowing what type you have helps us send the right crew size and equipment.

Upright pianos are the most common type in Cardiff homes.

They weigh between 150kg and 250kg depending on age and make. Older Bechstein and Broadwood uprights from the early 20th century often sit at the heavier end of that range. We use a piano board, moving straps, and a minimum of two trained crew members for every upright move.

Most upright piano deliveries in Cardiff complete within a couple of hours.

Baby grand and grand pianos require dismantling before transit.

The legs come off, the pedal lyre is removed, and the lid is secured separately. The body travels on its side on a padded piano board. Reassembly happens at the delivery address.

We handle grands in properties along Cathedral Road, in Cardiff Bay apartments, and in homes across CF23 and CF14 regularly.

Digital pianos with weighted keys are heavier than people expect — some Yamaha Clavinova models exceed 80kg — and they need careful handling to avoid damage to the keyboard action or electronics.

Keyboard workstations and stage pianos we also move as part of studio or venue relocations.

All moves include furniture blankets, shrink wrap for polished surfaces, and full goods-in-transit insurance.

If your piano has significant monetary or sentimental value, speak to our team about enhanced cover before your booking date.

Piano removal costs depend on the size of the instrument, the access conditions, and the distance between collection and delivery addresses.

Here is a practical guide to what to expect when booking with Giant Van in Cardiff.

Upright piano, ground floor to ground floor, same property or nearby: This is the simplest type of move.

A two-person crew with the right equipment handles it efficiently. Man and Van rates start from £54 per hour, and most local upright moves in Cardiff complete within two to three hours.

Upright piano with staircase carry: Staircase moves take longer and require a larger crew.

Budget for an additional hour on top of the standard rate. Properties in Roath or Plasnewydd with steep Victorian staircases may need three crew members depending on the configuration.

Grand piano local move in Cardiff: Grand pianos require dismantling, specialist padding, and reassembly.

These moves start at the equivalent of a 1-bed property move, which is typically in the £250 to £400 range for a same-city relocation.

Full house removals including a piano: If you are moving the whole household and the piano is one item among many, we quote the job as a package.

A 2-bed home removal in Cardiff ranges from £400 to £650; a 3-bed from £650 to £900. The piano is handled by the same crew with appropriate equipment throughout.
