Our Commitment to the Safe, Careful, and Expert Relocation of Your Piano
Ellis Moving & Storage is a family-owned and operated company with a core team of highly trained and experienced movers backed by over 45+ years of service in the Vancouver area.
We understand that moving a piano is unlike moving any other item in your home. Pianos are extraordinarily heavy, structurally complex, and highly sensitive to improper handling. An upright piano can weigh anywhere from 200 to 500 kilograms, while a grand piano can exceed 600 kilograms and requires full disassembly before it can be safely moved. Without the right team, the right equipment, and the right techniques, the risk of damage to both the instrument and your property is significant.
Our commitment to your piano move is built on three core principles.
First, we prioritize the structural integrity of your instrument. A piano that is improperly moved can suffer damage to its internal mechanisms, its finish, its keys, and its overall tuning stability. Our team uses specialized piano moving equipment and time-tested techniques to ensure your instrument is protected at every stage of the move — from the moment it is prepared for transport to the moment it is placed in its new home.
Next is the safety of your property. Moving a heavy, oversized instrument through your home presents a real risk of damage to floors, walls, doorframes, and staircases. Our team uses protective coverings and careful maneuvering techniques to ensure your property is left in perfect condition throughout the entire process.
Lastly, we are committed to giving you complete peace of mind. We know how much your piano means to you — musically, sentimentally, and financially. Our team treats every piano we move with the same level of respect and care we would give to our own most prized possession, so you can relax and trust that your instrument is in the very best hands.
Ellis Moving & Storage will handle every aspect of your piano move with the expertise, precision, and care that four decades of moving experience makes possible.
