How To Prepare For Your Piano's Move

Preparing for a professional piano mover to transport your instrument is fairly  simple.

​

To start, share as many details about your move as possible with us. Info such as what floor the instrument is on, the current location and destination, if there is an easy path of travel to our trucks or not, and the type of piano or instrument you're looking to have our professional piano movers handle.  

 

Removing all items off of your instrument is a quick second step.

​

Next, clearing as many of the larger items in the path of the exit is also a great help. 

​

However don't worry if you need our assistance in moving things like furniture or anything else too large for you to handle, as our professional piano moving staff have no issue lending out a helping hand!

​

It's also always a great idea to give your instrument a good cleaning before it gets moved to wherever it's new destination is. However, only clean with a damp microfiber rag to get the dust and debris off. Using products like piano polish are known to leave pad imprints behind after a move, so a simple damp rag is more appropriate!

​

Don't forget to ensure there is room for the professional moving trucks to park while loading the piano, or whichever type of instrument you have in mind to move!

How To Care For Your Piano After A Move  

There are many boxes that need to be checked following a safe transportation. 

​

An obvious yet important first box to check on the list is searching for any damage. Looking your piano over for any signs of damage like scratches, dings, gouges, and dents and don't hesitate to call a professional piano technician to more thoroughly inspect your piano if anything is found. A professional piano tech will be able to easily inspect the delicate inner workings of your instrument after a move.

​

If no damage is found, which there won't be if you call Piano Movers Rochester, NY because all moves conducted by our professionals include carefully  wrapping in piano moving blankets, precise strapping, and disassembly when necessary. 

​

Then the next proper step is to call a piano tuner, we recommend Burger piano service for a tuner in Rochester, NY. It's a necessary evil to have to tune a piano after a long distance or even a short move. During transportation, different stresses and loads are exerted on the body, causing the strings to be able to stretch and contract differently then in its upright happy position.

 

Because of this in order for your piano to sound as lovely as it did before the move, a piano tuner is a must. It's also a good idea because, as like anything, the professional piano tuner will be able to give your piano a discount double check on all its delicate parts that may affect its sound.

​

Perhaps more important than tuning the piano, is allowing ample time to adjust. Even after a local piano move, you should wait a couple days before playing. In doing so, this will allow your instrument to acclimate to the new humidity and temperature ranges that its going to live in. Thus giving you a more consistent and long lasting beautiful sound.

​

And certainly don't forget to keep your instrument clean!
