A piano is the single worst thing in most houses to move: an upright runs to several hundred pounds and a grand is heavier still, the weight is high and uneven, and the case marks if it is handled badly. We bring the equipment and the people for it, protect the route out, and take stairs and turns properly rather than at speed. Where an instrument is still playable we would far rather see it go to a school, a church or a family than to disposal, and we will help route it if you want that.
What's Included
Service FAQs
Can it be donated instead?
If it is playable, we would much rather that. Schools and churches often take them and we will help you find one.
Do stairs make a big difference?
With a piano, yes — more than with anything else we move. Tell us the flights and the turns when you book.

Call us
Tell us what needs to go and roughly where it is sitting.
Get a price
We price by how much space it takes on the truck and how far it has to be carried. You hear the number before we start.
We haul it away
We turn up when we said, carry it out ourselves, and sweep up after. piano removal done in one visit wherever it fits in one load.
Not sure what yours would come to? Send a photo and we will price it before anyone drives out.
What decides the price
Nobody can quote this trade honestly without seeing what they are looking at — the same reason a mechanic will not price a repair over the phone. But there is no mystery to what is being priced.
Space, not weight
You are paying for room on the truck. A pile of empty boxes can cost more than the same-sized pile of concrete.
How far it has to be carried
At the curb is quicker than an upstairs back bedroom, and the price follows the work.
Stairs and tight turns
A sleeper sofa down a staircase is a different job from one on a driveway.
Anything needing special handling
Paint, chemicals, tires and some electronics cannot ride in a general load.
Flattening boxes and stacking things tightly genuinely reduces what you pay. It is the one bit of prep worth doing.
What we take
Almost anything two people can carry and that is legal to put in a truck. Furniture, appliances, mattresses, garage and attic clutter, yard and construction debris, office and retail fit-outs, whole-property clearances.
If you are not sure about something, send a photo and ask. It is a thirty-second answer.
What nobody can take
These are refused by every hauler, not just us — they are governed by disposal law and go to a household hazardous waste drop-off instead:
- Paint and solvents
- Motor oil and fuel
- Pesticides and chemicals
- Propane tanks
- Car batteries
- Asbestos
- Medical waste
- Tires (varies)
Pull these out of the pile before we arrive and everything else can go on the truck.
There is usually one thing people are not sure about. Ask before you book, not after we arrive.
What customers say
"Love these guys. Saved me big time, after Amazon stiffed me with a used mattress they were supposed to take away. These guys could tell I was in a pickle and got to me at the end of their work day. Solid people I will be definitely patronizing in the future."
"Excellent service all around. Kenny is straight forward and professional. I went with Apex because their truck looks professional and they answered my call quickly with a quote in minutes. I'd recommend working with Apex if you need something done right the first time."
"Kenny and his team did an exceptional job removing junk from our yard in Los Angeles (90037). We called and requested same-day service, and they showed up promptly and got the job done."
