Piano Moving Experts in Cheltenham
Our Cheltenham Experience
With over 15 years of experience serving Cheltenham and the surrounding Cotswolds, A1 Piano Removals has become the trusted choice for homeowners, schools, and music venues across the town. Our team understands the unique character of Cheltenham—from the elegant Regency terraces of Montpellier and The Suffolks to the Victorian villas of Pittville and the family homes of Charlton Kings.
Cheltenham's historic architecture presents specific challenges for piano moving. The town's iconic Regency townhouses often feature narrow entrance halls, curved staircases with original ironwork, and delicate Minton tile floors that require careful protection. Our specialists have moved hundreds of pianos through these properties, developing techniques that protect both your instrument and your home's period features.
We've built strong relationships with Cheltenham's music community. From the concert venues at Cheltenham Town Hall to private music teachers in Lansdown, we're the piano movers that local musicians trust. Several Cheltenham schools rely on us for their annual piano maintenance moves, and we've handled instruments for the Cheltenham Music Festival events.
Our Gloucester headquarters is just 9 miles from Cheltenham town centre, meaning we can offer same-day service when you need it most. Whether you're moving a family upright from Leckhampton to Prestbury, or relocating a grand piano to a new teaching studio in the town centre, we have the local knowledge and specialist equipment to complete your move safely.
The Cotswolds location also means we regularly handle moves to and from rural properties around Cheltenham—including Cleeve Hill, Southam, and Bishop's Cleeve. Our vehicles are equipped to navigate country lanes and uneven driveways, and we carry additional equipment for properties with challenging access.
