At Pianos Recycled, we have a simple objective - to give new life to old pianos!
We save unwanted pianos from an ignoble end through handcrafted restoration or imaginative re-purposing. We process each instrument thoughtfully and creatively to extract not only a useful future as a unique and valued item, but we also ensure the embodied qualities of the piano's materials and craftsmanship receive the respect they deserve.Most unwanted pianos end up in landfill, which is both a loss of heritage and waste of resources. If you have an unwanted piano and want to be environmentally responsible, you can now choose a viable and unique alternative path for it.
And help sustain our planet into the future!
"PREPS" is a Programme for Recycled Educational Pianos in Schools - a joint initiative of Hendry Pianos and Pianos Recycled.
This applies the Street Piano idea into school's playgrounds. Following a successful trial at Dandenong West PS, we invite all schools to apply for a working and tuned piano to liven up kid's lunchtimes.
Get your school a piano for Free (you pay only for delivery and tuning). Simply email us "PREPS" and your contact details to pianosrecycled@gmail.com

We were on Channel 9 News Recently!
Pianos Recycled Founder and Principal Partner, Mike Hendry recently spent some time chatting with Tim Beanland for this illuminating podcast. Mike has over 40 years of experience in the piano and music industry as a piano tuner, restorer and seller through his business, Hendry Pianos. After witnessing the end of some pianos by sledgehammer, he had the foresight to venture into facilitating their recycling, and so Pianos Recycled was born. The full episode is at:
