Most people would rather be moved by the music of a piano than have to move the piano itself. Anyone who has been faced with this undertaking already knows that it can be a nightmare.

There are so many reasons you don’t want to move a piano without professional help. Here are a few to help you make the right decision:
Pianos are heavy. Trained movers are pros when it comes to moving large pieces of furniture, and not many large pieces of furniture you can find in your home weigh in quite like a piano. This isn’t a couch or a futon, but upwards of a thousand pounds of wood, metal strings, hinges, and brass. Pianos require special handling and extra security when being moved.
Pianos are awkward. Due to their shape, even the boxiest of pianos have a strange center of gravity, which makes them very difficult to move without damaging your walls, floor, or the piano itself. Our professional movers have the tools and experience to move your piano properly, from ground-level music rooms to upstairs or even basements.

of damage to the exterior of your piano. Repair services are extremely expensive, so it is best to avoid damage and just hire a professional. Pianos are precision instruments. Improperly moving your piano can cause significant damage to your instrument, but simply moving your piano will affect the accuracy of its tuning and how it will sound in its new destination. Even just moving a piano to another room in the house could warrant the need to have it re-tuned.
Don’t hurt yourself. A lot can happen while you are moving a piano, especially up or down stairs, loading it into a vehicle, or just trying to maneuver around corners and hallways. Without the proper equipment and training, you could really hurt yourself.
Many moving parts: When moving a piano, you might not know the best way to immobilize those moving parts to limit damage to the instrument. A fall or a bad Jolting can ruin a good piano.
