Need to Get Rid of an Old Piano?
Disposing of a piano isn’t easy — but we make it simple. Blake Transport offers professional piano collection and recycling in Milton Keynes and surrounding areas. Whether you have an upright, digital, or grand piano, we handle removal, transport, and eco-friendly disposal from start to finish.
How Do You Dispose of a Piano in the UK?
You can’t just put a piano in a skip — it’s too heavy, bulky, and often contains materials that need special disposal. That’s why our service includes:
- ✔️ Collection of upright, digital, and grand pianos
- ✔️ Safe removal by experienced movers
- ✔️ Dismantling and recycling of all usable components
- ✔️ Licensed waste disposal for non-recyclables
Can a Piano Be Recycled?
Yes! We recycle pianos by separating wood, metal, and electronic parts. Many older or broken pianos are unsuitable for reuse, but up to 90% of the material can be recycled responsibly. If the piano is still playable, we may be able to rehome or donate it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you collect a piano from an upstairs flat?
Yes, if there’s safe access. In some cases, we may require an extra person or stair handling equipment, which can slightly increase the cost. Contact us for advice.
What happens to the piano after collection?
Depending on condition, we either dismantle and recycle it or rehome it via donation. Nothing goes to landfill unless absolutely necessary.
Can I drop my piano off instead?
We offer collection-only services at the moment, but if you have transport and want to bring it to us, we may be able to arrange supervised drop-off by appointment.
Do you recycle digital pianos?
Yes — digital pianos are treated as electronic waste (WEEE) and processed accordingly. We also remove batteries and internal electronics before recycling.
Can I get a same-day or next-day pickup?
Often yes! We try to accommodate urgent removals where possible. Call us directly for real-time availability.
