When you need your piano moved to a new place of residency, you should think twice before you decide to try to move it on your own. Before you start looking for a rental truck and someone to come assist you, it is a good idea to do some research so you have a better understanding of the different things that can go wrong and the reasons why hiring a pro is the best option. Here is more info on why it is better to hire a professional to move your piano:
You can prevent lawsuits
When you try to move your piano, and you find you got in over your head, you may end up causing damage to someone else's property, depending on where you are moving the piano to and from. For example, if you rent an apartment and you are moving the piano, there are many ways you can damage the unit due to the size and weight of the piano. If you have borrowed a truck to move the piano, then you can even end up damaging the truck in the process. While there is much less risk of problems when pros move it, another bonus is knowing if there were something to happen, then they would be liable.
You can end up spending less
When you think about paying someone to move your piano for you, it may seem like a waste of money when you consider you have a truck and people who can help you. However, when you consider the fact that your piano may not even fit in your truck, you would need to buy or rent certain equipment and materials to properly move it, and you run the risk of causing damage to the piano and many other things in the process, then you may see how it can end up costing you more to move it on your own. It is often far better to pay professionals to move it for you because you know they will have the right moving materials and can get it to you safely. They will also let you know how much the total will be upfront, which will ease some financial guessing from you.
When you take on the task of moving your piano yourself, it can cause you a lot of stress. You know you are taking on a big job and that there is so much that can go wrong. When you can have the piano moved with a phone call and know that it is being moved by someone who is more than capable, then you can be done with worrying about it and have it moved safely.

When I first moved off to college, I was lucky to have parents who helped me plan the move. They recruited help from a local moving company and helped me pack my belongings well so they arrived at my dorm in good condition. Our family made a lot of moves while I was a young child, so they learned many creative tips for making the moving process easier. Later in life when I approached a move all on my own, I was grateful for their tips that made the process easier than I heard it can be for other people. I decided to help others by sharing my moving tips on a blog to "pay it back" for the great tips my parents taught me!
