Piano Removal
A piano is a cherished musical instrument, but when it’s time to move on from an old, broken, or unused piano, the removal process can seem daunting. Pianos are incredibly heavy, awkwardly shaped, and fragile, making DIY removal not only difficult but also risky. That’s where Nova Junk steps in. Our professional piano removal service ensures that your old or unwanted piano is removed safely, efficiently, and with care.
One of the major concerns when disposing of an old piano is the environmental impact. Pianos are made from a variety of materials, including wood, metal, and plastic, which can be harmful to the environment if disposed of improperly. At Nova Junk, we prioritize eco-friendly disposal and recycling whenever possible.
Many parts of a piano can be recycled or repurposed. The wood can be used for furniture or reclaimed wood projects, the metal strings can be melted down and recycled, and the ivory or plastic keys can be repurposed. If the piano is still in playable condition, we’ll work with local organizations to donate it to schools, community centers, or other charitable groups.
By choosing Nova Junk for your piano removal, you’re making an environmentally conscious choice that helps reduce waste and supports sustainable practices.

Types of Pianos We Remove
At Nova Junk, we have experience in removing all types of pianos, from small uprights to grand pianos. Here are the most common types of pianos we remove:

- Grand Pianos: Grand pianos are larger and more complex to move due to their size and weight, often exceeding 1,000 pounds. We have the tools and experience to safely remove grand pianos without causing damage to your home or the piano itself.
- Baby Grand Pianos: Though smaller than full-size grand pianos, baby grands are still heavy and delicate. We treat them with the same care and expertise as larger models.
- Digital Pianos and Organs: Digital pianos and electric organs may not be as heavy as their acoustic counterparts, but they still require careful handling during removal. Our team is well-versed in safely removing all types of digital instruments.
