Why Hire a Piano Mover? 5 Compelling Reasons

Whether console, grand, or baby grand, pianos are heavy. It goes without saying that trying to move one by yourself runs the risk of causing expensive damage to the equipment. Even worse is the high probability of causing damage to property in the house, yourself, and others around you. It's not recommended to hire a regular house moving company because they don't specialize in the nuances involved in moving a delicate item like a piano.
Here are just a few reasons it's essential to hire piano moving professionals.
Pianos are Delicate Musical Instruments It's easy to confuse their bulky appearance with durability, but that's not really the case. Pianos are not designed to be stationary and hold their own against rough usage pretty well. They are at their most vulnerable when in transit - and it's easy to see why.
Pianos contain several delicate moving parts that are prone to damage if not handled with care. In fact, some pianos contain over 6,000 internal components - and damaging just one of these could severely impact its functionality. This is a serious expense that could tank your bank account and leave your piano out of commission for some time.
Pianos can be Very ExpensiveWhile it's true that it can cost more to hire a piano moving service, it is worth the extra charge. You get to work with experts who have the knowledge and equipment required to move your treasured musical instrument while minimizing damages.
For instance, it isn't uncommon for pianos to go out of tune while being moved. This is usually cheaper to fix but it will still cost you about $150 to $300 to re-tune the piano after moving it yourself.  
Moving a Piano on Your own can be DangerousNothing is more valuable than your health. Given the size and relative weight of your piano, it can pose a serious risk to your health as well as anyone helping you move it.
Pianos are simply too heavy and feature excessive dimensions that make them dangerous to move from one place to another. A DIY move attempt could lead to an accident, which could cause serious injuries like crushed fingers and broken limbs to a sore back and torn ligaments.
Professionals Utilize Special Moving Equipment and Techniques The main reason only professional piano movers should be utilized to move your piano is because they have the necessary training and tools needed to handle the fragile equipment. They are also trained to dismantle the pianos and put them back together should the need arise.
Save Time, Money, and StressThe DIY route may be cheaper but trusting a professional piano mover can save you money in the long run. Professional piano movers have the right equipment and experience needed to make the job hassle-free. And the best part is that the service is more affordable than risking an injury or damage to the instrument.
