Different types of pianos might need to be handled differently than those listed in the steps above. Nonetheless, the professionals will know how to address the situation correctly. While moving a piano is a delicate process, many companies will have the experience to follow through with the moving process safely.
Make sure that you purchase insurance for the piano’s shipping process. This will only protect the piano should it become damaged, lost, or stolen due to the movers’ negligence. While this is unlikely to happen with a professional moving company, you never know when something might occur while the piano is in transit to its new home.
