I wanted to find some advice on moving a piano, either on my own or with a couple of other guys. But from what I have read, moving a piano on your own isn’t advisable, unless you are just moving it around your house. Even in that case, hiring professional piano movers is suggested. If you don’t know what you are doing, you can easily damage a piano or knock it out of tune by improperly moving. A piano is a heavy, yet delicate instrument that must not be handled recklessly. There are many other potential accidents that could occur to you and your buddies while moving a piano.
If you are moving to a new residence, you are advised to hire professional piano movers.
This company will specialize in piano moving, so they will know all of the proper ways to dismantle (if needed), package, store, and transport a piano to your new home.
As when hiring any moving company, do your research on the company.
- Find out what their insurance policy covers damage to the piano.
- Ask about the vehicles they use..
- Their storage and packing methods.
- Ask about any dismantling they may want to do in order to move the piano.
- Check with multiple companies and get estimates.
- Find out about their traveling distances. Across town, across the state, or across the country.
