Moving Your Piano in Your Home or Building

When it comes to moving a piano around your home, there are several things that you can do to help prevent damage to the piano and your space. The following are a few simple steps you can take to make the process trouble-free:

  • Mark out the path in which you will be moving the piano.
  • Measure both the piano and any doorways the piano will go through.
  • Move any furniture that could be in the way.
  • Understand the small intricacies about your piano to prevent damage to any strings and/or mechanics inside the piano.
  • Check to see if there are any removable parts, such as piano legs, to make the move easier.
  • Make sure pets and small children are in another area that will be away from the moving of the piano.

Preparing to Move to a New Location

Just as with moving your piano around your home or building, there are a few extra things to consider when preparing your piano to move to a new location. The following are additional things you can do to prepare your piano:

  • Clean and inspect your piano.
  • Make sure that the area the piano will go through, as well as the surrounding space, is clear.
  • Separate any detachable parts and secure the piano lid, if applicable.
  • Figure out where your piano should be placed in the new location ahead of time.

When Should You Hire a Professional?

Moving a piano can seem overwhelming. There can be a lot of factors to take in, such as safety, time, and location. Hiring a professional moving company can make moving a piano to a new location simpler for you!
