How To Move A Piano

By Joseph Tranturder


What's the best way to move a piano on flat ground? From start to finish, asking volunteers to move it is a potentially dangerous situation.

As you are moving you want to make sure that you take the time that you need to understand how you are going to avoid having anything broken. There are lots of people that do not realize how easily things can break when you are moving.

The price of injury to either can be extreme; therefore, many advise hiring a moving company in Utah rather than risk it. They have the equipment, man-power, and experience to get you through the move safely, and if an accident does occur, they often have insurance to take care of it.

You want to make sure that you are taking the time that you need to understand how you are going to find the right newspapers for the job. Saving up your newspapers for a week or so beforehand is a great and inexpensive way to pack your dishes.

Clearly label each box with a sharpie. You may also choose to purchase white stickered labels instead of writing directly on the box. Before sealing the boxes, you might want to consider placing a moisture absorber into the box for an added level of protection against mold and mildew.

Considering how heavy and awkward the instrument is, you'll be taking a big risk to try and move it yourself. Grab a dolly, a couple of friends, read the instructions, and carefully proceed to move your piano.

How about when you need to get one up or down the stairs? College students have been seen moving upright pianos to second and third floors of apartment complexes via a single set of narrow stairs. How then can you get yours up or down the stairs in your home safely without breaking everyone's backs? Although many professional Utah moving companies in Utah wouldn't advice doing this at all, they can often provide assistance or help you figure it out if you insist.

While you are taking the time that you need to plan out your boxes you may want to have smaller boxes rather than a lot of large boxes. You want to make sure that you balance what you can carry and the tools that you have to move the boxes.

To ensure maximum safety, measure out the hallway and the width of the piano to ensure there's enough room for one mover to fit on either side of the piano. You'll want one person to the left, right, back and front.

This way, you will know exactly what is in your box before you unpack it and you can put it in the right part of your home. Make sure that you take the time that you need to understand how you are going to be smart while you are moving everything.

If you cannot afford to have an aisle, plan for one anyway and then place lighter furniture items and easily moved boxes in the aisle so you can move them quickly when you need to access the items at the back of your storage unit.

Pianos are difficult to move on your own. Their tiny wheels aren't often enough to handle the stress of moving. A Utah moving company, or a dolly with four to six able volunteers, can help you surmount most of the difficulties without injury to the piano or people. It's much better to be safe than sorry when it comes to the value and heirloom quality of your piano.
