Moving a piano requires more than physical strength alone. Whether it concerns a digital piano, an upright piano or a baby grand, careful planning, the right equipment and experienced hands are essential. At Dockx Movers, we understand both the emotional and financial value of your instrument. That is why we offer a safe and efficient piano moving service tailored to your needs.
Please note: our service applies only to pianos with a maximum length of 1.60 metres (including baby grands). For larger pianos, such as salon or concert grands, we recommend contacting your piano dealer.
Pianos are not only heavy, but also extremely delicate. Even a compact baby grand can weigh up to 350 kilograms. This makes the use of proper techniques and sufficient manpower crucial. Dockx Movers has the necessary experience, specialised equipment and a carefully thought-out approach to move these instruments safely and professionally.
When you choose Dockx Movers to relocate your piano, we follow a precise and structured process to ensure safe and damage-free transport.
Based on photos and your information, we assess the technical characteristics of your piano. We determine the safest moving route and ensure adequate protection for both the piano and your home.
The piano is carefully lifted and wrapped in specialised moving blankets, providing maximum protection against impact and scratches. If required, the piano can also be fully enclosed (e.g. crated) upon request.
We use vehicles equipped with the appropriate securing systems to transport your piano safely. Our movers apply professional lifting and loading techniques to eliminate the risk of damage.
Upon arrival, we place the piano in the desired location. The instrument is positioned correctly so it is immediately ready for use.

The cost of moving a piano varies depending on several factors, such as the size of the piano, the distance involved and the complexity of the move (for example, stairs or the use of a crane). Dockx Movers offers transparent pricing and a free, non-binding quote, so you know exactly what to expect.
Below you will find an overview of the additional services we offer to ensure that your business relocation runs smoothly.
We move pianos weighing up to 350 kg, including:
– Upright pianos
– Baby grand pianos
For both private and professional customers, anywhere in Belgium.
Yes. Standard coverage is provided through BKV insurance (€125 per m³ of damage with an excess of €250.00) as we are a Certified Mover. For higher values, we recommend additional insurance.
TIP: For pianos with a higher (emotional or financial) value, we recommend additional insurance for extra peace of mind. This can be arranged via verzekerjeverhuis.be.
In some cases, yes, but it depends on:
– The width and slope of the stairs
– The type of piano
– The turning points
We will always opt to do this with a removal lift, which is often safer and faster.
Yes. A piano can easily be part of a regular move, but it always requires extra attention, manpower, and protection. That is why it is important that we know in advance that a piano will be moved.
Are you only moving a piano? That is also possible, of course. This is simply covered by our standard moving rates.
Yes. If necessary, your piano can be stored temporarily in our furniture storage facility, which is secure, dry, and heated (i.e., stable temperature). This can be useful, for example, in the case of a phased move or renovations. Our furniture storage facility is located in Wilrijk (Antwerp).
