Areas we cover
We collect pianos from across Southampton and the wider SO area every Friday, hold them in steady climate-controlled conditions, and return them when you are ready.
Book storageA city that moves a lot of pianos
Southampton is a working port city with a large university, a strong music scene and a housing stock that ranges from Edwardian terraces a street from the waterfront to new-builds out toward Hedge End and Chandler's Ford. Pianos end up needing storage here for all kinds of reasons: a family in Highfield putting the house on the market, an academic at the University of Southampton heading off on a placement year, a retired professional in Bassett downsizing to a flat with no room for the upright.
The SO postcode stretches well beyond the city itself, covering Eastleigh, Romsey, Totton, Hythe and the villages that run out toward the New Forest. Our specialist piano crews collect from all of it.

Collection day
We collect in Southampton every Friday. A Friday slot suits families who want a weekend to settle in without the piano in the way, and students clearing out at the end of a year. We confirm a three-hour target window the evening before so you know when to expect us.
If the piano is on an upper floor, whether in a student house near Portswood or a Victorian terrace in Shirley, stair access is priced clearly in the online booking before you confirm anything. If Friday does not suit, an off-day collection can be arranged for an added charge.
Why specialist storage matters here
Southampton sits where the Test and Itchen meet the Solent. The damp that rises from the waterways finds its way into older properties, and pianos left in a spare bedroom or a garage that is not properly heated and ventilated suffer for it. Soundboards crack, pin blocks swell, and actions seize. A piano that spent the winter in an unheated room near the water will almost always need significant work before it plays well again.
Our facility holds a steady temperature and humidity throughout the year. From the moment our crew collects the instrument to the moment they bring it back to you, it is fully insured and held in conditions that suit it. The store is monitored around the clock.
What we store
We take uprights, baby grands and full concert grands, plus the keyboards, organs and related instruments that often need somewhere to go at the same time.
Pricing for Southampton
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.
