What Equipment is Needed to Move a Piano?
Although your piano has skids, these are not designed to carry the piano. They can be useful to move it over short distances. They might even mark the floor. The skids of a piano are particularly fragile.
To move the piano, our moving company is equipped with suitable equipment:
- Non-slip gloves
- Piano transport straps

In some situations, it is necessary to use a freight elevator to move a piano. This happens when your building does not have a lift that can support the weight of a piano. It can also be tricky if the stairwell is too narrow. This is particularly the case when moving a large piano.
