How to Prepare Your Piano for Moving
Proper preparation ensures your piano move goes smoothly and safely. Follow our expert guidelines to get your instrument ready for professional transport.
How It Works
Clear the Piano Area
Remove all items from on top of and around the piano. Clear a path from the piano to the exit, ensuring there are no obstacles for our team.
Secure the Keyboard Lid
Close and lock the keyboard lid if possible. If there's no lock, we'll secure it with tape during the move to prevent it opening during transport.
Remove Music Stands & Accessories
Take off any removable music stands, metronomes, or decorative items. Pack these separately as they can be damaged if left attached during the move.
Take Photos for Insurance
Document your piano's current condition with photos from all angles. This helps with insurance claims and ensures we're aware of any existing marks or damage.
Measure Doorways & Passages
Measure all doorways, hallways, and staircases the piano must pass through. Share these measurements with us to ensure we bring the right equipment.
Arrange Tuning After Move
Book a piano tuner for 2-3 weeks after your move. Transport can affect tuning, and the piano needs time to settle in its new environment.
