The Benefits of Professional Piano Moving and Storage

Moving your piano to a new house or moving it out of the way while your house is being painted or renovated, poses numerous risks. It is not some electronic thing that can be merely unplugged and packed in the cupboard or stored in the garage for the time being. Many factors come into play when it comes to the effective and safe storage of your piano.
  • Having your piano moved by people not qualified in piano moving and storage who are not aware of all the potential dangers, is likely to result in damage or injury. It might not be visible damage but internal, affecting the sound and operation of the instrument. My professional piano moving and piano storage service will ensure that your piano is kept safe.
  • Being a complex musical instrument constructed from wood, a piano is sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity. Proper piano storage involves keeping your piano in an upright position in a well-ventilated room at approximately 21-22°C, suitably wrapped in blankets and plastic.
  • Moving your piano should be done carefully and with the right equipment to avoid bumps and shocks that can affect and disrupt the sensitive internal structure and small components of the piano.
