Piano storage
Expert dismantling, soundboard and action protected, held in museum-grade climate-controlled conditions, then rebuilt and re-delivered when you are ready.
Book storageBuilt for the big instruments
A full-size grand is the most demanding piano to store well. It is heavy, the case is long, and the value sitting in front of you is often considerable. None of that is a problem when the people doing the work know grands, and all of it becomes one when they do not. This is the part of the job where a specialist earns their place.
Our crews dismantle a grand the way it should be done. The lid and music desk come off, the legs and lyre are removed, and the body is eased onto a board and carried by hand rather than dragged. Every move is planned around protecting the soundboard and the action, because those are the parts that turn a grand from furniture back into an instrument.


The heart of the piano
Everything we do in storage points at one thing, keeping the soundboard sound. It is a tensioned sheet of spruce with a slight crown built into it, and that crown is what gives a grand its voice. Lose it to a crack or to dried-out timber and no amount of tuning brings the piano back.
High-value instruments
People who own a serious grand, a Steinway, a Bechstein, a fine Yamaha, are not just looking for space. They want to know exactly who is handling it, where it sits, and that it is covered if anything goes wrong. We log the instrument against your booking from the day it arrives, so its time in store is accounted for rather than left to memory.
Pricing and re-delivery
Tell us it is a grand and your postcode, and the collection fee and weekly rate appear straight away, with stairs and access priced clearly so nothing is added later. There is no fixed term. When you are ready, one message books the return, and the crew rebuilds the grand in place, levels it on its legs and refits the lid and lyre before they leave.
Simple, transparent pricing
Prices include collection, climate-controlled storage and full insurance. Stairs without a lift and off-day collections are priced transparently in the booking. Re-delivery is quoted when you are ready for the piano back.
Questions
The body is dismantled, eased onto a padded board and held in climate-controlled conditions where the humidity stays steady. Stable air is what keeps the soundboard crown intact, since cracking and flattening come from dryness and big swings rather than from being stored on its side.
Specialist piano crews who handle grands every week, at collection and at re-delivery. We do not use general labour for any part of the job, because dismantling a grand and protecting the soundboard and action take experience that a removal crew simply does not have.
Yes. Every piano is fully insured from collection through storage to return, and if you hold a specialist valuation for a fine grand, tell us when you book so we record it. The facility is monitored around the clock and the instrument is logged against your booking.
As long as you need. There is no fixed term and storage is billed in four-weekly cycles, so a grand can wait out a short renovation or sit safely for several years between homes. In stable conditions it keeps its condition throughout.
It should come back as it went in. As with any grand, give it a week or two to settle into the new room, then book a tuner so it is at its best. Climate-controlled storage is what spares you the regulation and repair work that poor storage causes.
Throughout GB mainland and Belfast. Each postcode area has one set collection day each week, and we confirm a 3-hour target window the day before so a crew with the right kit arrives when expected.
