What we move

Upright & spinet pianos

Wrapped in thick pads, strapped to a piano dolly and walked out slow. Most uprights are a two-person job.

Legs and lyre come off, the body goes on its side on a padded piano board, then it's strapped and carried. Reassembled and leveled at the new spot.

Stairs, tight turns & apartments

Walk-ups, narrow halls, elevators and doormen buildings are normal for us. No extra stairs fee.
