Piano Moving Process

Piano moving begins with the booking process. Be prepared with the details, such as type of piano being moved (upright, grand, etc), presence and complexity of stairs, adequate door width. After the initial questionnaire reserve your move and we will send out 2 to 4 movers to handle your piano in the safest way possible. For upright pianos the process is relatively simple: we wrap piano with plastic film and blankets and position it on a piano skid board. Then we mount the piano and board on four-wheel dolly and transport it to the truck. In cases involving grand pianos more work needs to be done: moving parts of piano and legs are carefully removed and labeled if necessary. Grand pianos are transported in vertical position, and thus require more men-power to handle it. Usually, 2 movers are required to move an upright piano, and up to 4 movers needed for grand pianos. After piano is wrapped and protected we will turn it on the skid board and strap to prevent any shifting. Further, grand piano is transported inside the truck and delivered to destination.
