The item is only half the assessment
Weight and dimensions matter, but so do door widths, steps, landings, lift capacity, floor protection and the truck approach. Photos should show the full path at pickup and delivery.
Specialist handling
Piano and heavy-item removalists in Melbourne
Extra planning and controlled handling for pianos, marble and stone tables, safes and other demanding pieces.
Quick answer
What this service includes
Pianos, marble, stone, glass, safes and unusually heavy furniture need an item-and-access assessment before booking. NextWave uses measurements and photos to plan the crew, equipment, wrapping and safe carry path.
Specialist handling is confirmed before moving day
Some pieces need extra people, specialist equipment or a different vehicle position. We explain those requirements before the move instead of adding an unassessed heavy item to an ordinary household plan.
What we can plan
A clear scope before moving day.
Every quote starts with the route, timing, access and what needs moving. That information helps us assess vehicle space, equipment and labour without pretending two different moves are the same.
- Upright pianos and other specialist items by assessment
- Marble, stone and glass tables
- Heavy cabinets, safes and awkward furniture
- Protective wrapping, trolleys and controlled loading
- Stair, lift and doorway assessment
- Standalone item moves or inclusion in a larger relocation

Common questions
Piano, marble & heavy items FAQs
Direct answers to the details customers usually need before requesting a quote.
Can you move an upright piano in Melbourne?
Yes, subject to the piano dimensions, approximate weight and safe access at both properties. Send clear photos of the piano, steps, turns and entrances.
Do you move marble or stone tables?
We assess stone furniture individually because top construction, weight, base removal and access affect the handling plan.
Can a heavy item go up or down stairs?
That depends on the item, stair width, turns, structure and safe handling method. A stair move cannot be assumed until the measurements and photos are reviewed.
