Fully Equipped to Climb
A starclimber is a specialised piece of equipment that allows us to move bulky or heavy items up and down stairs with ease. At Slipstream Carriers we are so passionate about making every move a success we have not one, but three different kinds of stairclimbers.
These handy machines all have individual capabilities which allow us to tackle different projects successfully. They reduce the potential for damage to your items and prevent the possibility of moving injuries for our team.
Industrially Strong yet Tactically Delicate
Before moving the weight down a flight of stairs, Slipstream Carriers ensures that your asset is carefully protected in transport blankets to prevent scratches. We then use one of our three different specialised stair climbers to move the load depending on the circumstance and pathway.
Each piece of equipment is specially designed to provide incredible dexterity and flexibility in narrow hallway spaces and awkward corners. They balance out the load during the move while preventing damage from slides, judders and jolts when your item is moving up and down the stairs.
Intrigued about how they work? Find out more about our agile helpers below:
The Pianoplan Standard is our go to machine for moving grand pianos, upright pianos and many other large, heavy and awkward items. This machine can carry up to 600kg with ease meaning nothing is too large for Slipstream Carriers. The hydraulically actioned, sliding top plate keeps the load level and balanced at all times and enables us to shift the item forward or backwards in order to manoeuvre around tight landings and corners.
Thanks to its small size and its elevation system of rollers, Pianoplan can rotate in very small spaces. An electromagnetic brake continuously assists the operator which means heavy loads can be moved with 1 or 2 people instead of 4 or 5. The commands are placed on the control console, and the operation of the tracks is controlled by an electronic potentiometer joystick which allow delicate and precise movements.
This machine is very similar to the Standard Pianoplan but is equipped with two hydraulic arms and a tilting platform. The tilting platform attaches to the item that is being moved and lifts it back onto the machine so that no manual handling is involved. For example, when carrying a bulky refrigerator, vending machine or safe, the Pianoplan Vertical allows the item to be lifted and rotated into position onto the stair climber machine. Thanks to the stabilisers, all the work is carried out in complete safety. After climbing the steps or stairs, the item is mechanically returned to the original upright position.
The Zonzini Skipper is the smallest and lightest of our stairclimbers and has the capability of moving up to 400kgs. It is equipped with independent crawler tracks that can turn in very tight spaces. The machine is controlled with a joystick which allows us to change the track direction at any time. This machine is ideal for taking safe boxes and cylinders up and down stairs.

Posted on Google Randel Spence Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andrew and his offsider did a fantastic job. Moved our piano with care and professionalism. We needed it in a bedroom at back of house and were worried it would not fit through tight hallway corners. Andrew got it done with so much care - not a mark on piano or walls - all at a good price. Communication throughout was on point as well. Highly recommend. Posted on Google Curtis Morren Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great work Andrew and Jack!

I would recommend them to anyone! Posted on Google Elise Marciano Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andrew & Jack were incredibly professional and caring in moving our upright piano between residences. It’s a special piano, shortly to be played by the fourth generation in our family, and they took the utmost care. We obtained several quotes before selecting them, and can recommend them for value, communication and service quality. Posted on Google Georgie Lou Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can not recommend Slipstream Carriers highly enough. Andrew and Jack did the most amazing job, helping us move some difficult items from Perth to Dunsborough. The care displayed by them was amazing, and to top it off, they are both really lovely chaps. Thanks Andrew and Jack... until next time! Thank you again! Posted on Google M. Major Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Andrew and Jack were awesome! They were very careful and also quick and efficient. And so friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. I'll definitely be using them again for my beloved piano if needed. Thanks guys!
