Moving a piano isn’t like moving a couch or a box of books. Pianos are heavy, delicate, and require special care and expertise to move safely. Whether you're relocating across town or moving to a new home in the heart of Minnesota, it's essential to understand what’s involved in the process of piano moving. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about piano moving in Minnesota — from hiring professional movers to the best time of year to schedule your piano move.
While some people might think that moving a piano is as simple as just getting a few strong friends together, the reality is much more complex. Here’s why hiring professional piano movers is always the best choice:
– Plan week by week
– Go through every room of your house/apartment and determine what you’d like to keep and what you can get rid of. Have a garage sale, donate useful items.
– Formulate a plan to personally transport your personal belongings to your new home like jewelry and other valuable pieces if possible.
– Purchase or get free boxes of all sort (small, medium, large, and wardrobe). Specialty boxes are also a good investment to transport (dishes, electronics, office files and wall art) etc.
– Get plenty of tape. Also shrink and bubble wrap and mattress bags if necessary.
– Pay close attention when packing
– Label all boxes
– Pack heavy items like books, tools, canned goods and knick-knacks in small boxes.
– For medium boxes, pack smaller household items, games, shoes, coffee makers, pots and pans.
– Pack bulky, light items into large boxes: lampshades, blankets, pillows, stereo speaker, towels and linens.
– Always be present or have someone available to direct the movers into your new place.
– Do a walk through with the movers
– Plan a designated landing spot for big furniture beforehand.
– After the truck is completely empty, do a final walk through.
