Whether you\u2019re moving into a new home or looking to place your piano into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.priceselfstorage.com\/self-storage\/personal-storage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">personal storage<\/a>, pianos are fragile instruments that must be moved with great care and caution. That\u2019s why learning how to move a piano before starting<s> <\/s>can make the process relatively easy and safe\u2014for you<em> and <\/em>your piano.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For anyone wondering how to move a piano yourself, we\u2019ve put together this handy guide of 5 steps that will help you transport your eight-eights from point A to point B safely and securely.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"before-you-begin\">Before You Begin<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It\u2019s often best to hire a professional piano mover to move your piano, especially if you live somewhere with stairs, elevators, or other obstacles to moving. Movers have the experience, equipment, and extra hands to help reduce the risk of improperly moving a piano, which can lead to:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Damage to the piano <\/strong>\u2013 Professional piano movers can help you avoid chipped or broken off keys, mangled pedals, broken legs, and body damage.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Harm to yourself\/others <\/strong>\u2013 Grand pianos can weigh up to 1,000 pounds, but attempting to move an even smaller model like an upright piano or a baby grand piano can result in injury.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Property damage <\/strong>\u2013 Knicked or dented walls and damaged staircases and door frames are just some of the property damages professional piano movers can help you dodge.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Depending on where you move your piano, you may also want to reserve an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.priceselfstorage.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">affordable self-storage unit<\/a> that\u2019s big enough to house a piano during the move. After all, keeping your piano out of the way can help you organize and unpack your moving boxes more easily. Price Self Storage offers units sized up to 10&#215;30 feet, leaving enough room for your piano and then some.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>That said, if you\u2019re wondering how to move a grand piano yourself, there are steps you can take to get the job done right.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-1-enlist-helpers\">Step 1: Enlist Helpers\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you decide against hiring a professional piano mover, you\u2019ll still need an extra pair of hands (or two!) to move your piano. Enlist the help of family, friends, or someone you trust enough to do the job with the care, patience, and precision required.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-2-gather-supplies-and-equipment\">Step 2: Gather Supplies and Equipment<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Piano moving requires significant planning and the right equipment. To that end, you\u2019ll need:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>A piano dolly<\/strong> \u2013 Using piano dollies can help you transfer your piano to your new home or practice space. Ideally, purchase or rent a four-wheel dolly that\u2019s designed for pianos to transport your prized piano safely.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Moving straps <\/strong>\u2013 Invest in heavy-duty moving straps so that you can secure your piano during the move and avoid any damage.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Protective padding <\/strong>\u2013 You\u2019ll also need protective padding and a moving blanket to protect your piano from dents, scratches, and other damages. These can also be purchased or rented.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Moving truck <\/strong>\u2013 You won\u2019t be fitting your piano into the back of your hatchback or strapping it to the top of your minivan. You\u2019ll need to rent a moving truck with adequate space.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-3-prepare-your-piano-for-the-move\">Step 3: Prepare Your Piano for the Move<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Before you begin the move, you need to secure and protect the piano. Pay particular attention to:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>The keys <\/strong>\u2013 Make sure that the keyboard lid is closed and locked to ensure that the keys remain protected through the move.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>The piano body <\/strong>\u2013 Protect the piano body by securely wrapping it in the furniture pads or a moving blanket. You can secure the padding with a moving strap or packing tape\u2014just avoid attaching the tape to the piano itself.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-4-move-the-piano\">Step 4: Move the Piano\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Once you\u2019ve properly secured your piano, you can begin your move. Piano moving takes just a little bit of strength and a lot of know-how. But these crucial tips for how to move a piano yourself will help you during the process:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Lift the piano properly <\/strong>\u2013 Never lift the piano by its legs. Instead, feed heavy-duty moving straps underneath the piano for you and your helpers to use as leverage.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Use a dolly <\/strong>\u2013 With everyone sharing the weight and lifting together, place the piano gently on the dolly, making sure that all four legs are resting flat. Remember, always keep the piano in an upright position.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>Remove casters\/legs, if necessary <\/strong>\u2013 If your piano has casters, it\u2019s smart to remove them before transporting the piano. Additionally, removing the legs from a grand piano is advised to help fit the piano through doors and hallways more easily.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Once the piano is safely on the dolly, you can move it to the truck. To secure it for transportation, make sure:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>The truck bed is level <\/strong>\u2013 A level truck bed keeps the piano safe from damage. You can use planks of wood to help level things out.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>The piano is secure inside the truck <\/strong>\u2013 Using the moving straps, secure the piano to the truck walls to prevent it from moving around during transport.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-5-unload-the-piano-safely\">Step 5: Unload the Piano Safely<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When you arrive at your destination, be sure to follow the same precautions for moving your piano into its new location. Also, have its new space cleared and ready to welcome it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You\u2019ll also need to have your piano tuned after moving it, especially if it\u2019s experienced temperature or humidity changes or if the piano was moved an exceptionally long distance.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"find-storage-space-with-price-self-storage\">Find Storage Space with Price Self Storage<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Safely moving a piano is possible when you practice diligence and caution.
