Why Professional Equipment and Training Matter
Pianos are not just heavy—they’re also highly sensitive to vibrations, tilts, and bumps. The wrong move can cause costly internal damage or affect the piano’s tuning. RL Relocation’s professional movers are trained to:
- Minimize vibrations and shocks during transport.
- Handle weight distribution to prevent strain on the instrument.
- Use protective coverings to shield your piano from scratches and dents.
According to Piano Technicians Guild, a piano’s lifespan can be drastically reduced if improperly moved. Trust the experts to preserve your instrument’s integrity.
Tips for Preparing Your Piano for a Move
To ensure a smooth move, follow these preparation tips:
- Clean and Close: Dust the exterior and close the lid securely to protect keys and components.
- Measure Doorways: Confirm the piano will fit through all entryways or pathways.
- Inform the Movers: Provide details about stairs, tight spaces, or other challenges.
