You've invested time and money into your piano, whether it's an heirloom passed down through generations or a new instrument you're proud to call your own. And when it comes time to move that musical treasure, you want peace of mind knowing it will arrive at its destination unscathed.

At Around Town Movers, we understand the importance of handling pianos with care. That's why our team has over 100 years of combined experience in piano moving and specialty services like white glove delivery and office relocations. We've seen it all - from antique grand pianos to modern digital keyboards - and we know how to move them safely without compromising on quality or service.

So, what makes us the go-to choice for piano moving? Here are three tips from our experts:

1. *Protective Packing: Pianos are delicate instruments that require specific care during transportation. Our team uses specialized materials like custom-built crates and heavy-duty blankets to protect your piano from any potential damage during the move. We also take extra precautions when handling antique or valuable pianos, ensuring they receive the utmost attention to detail.

2. Experienced Handling: Moving a piano isn't just about lifting and carrying it from one place to another. It requires skillful maneuvering, especially in tight spaces or up flights of stairs. Our team has the experience needed to handle any situation with ease, ensuring your musical treasure arrives safely at its destination.

3. Secure Storage: If you need temporary storage for your piano during a move or renovation project, we offer secure warehouse facilities that provide climate-controlled environments specifically designed for storing pianos.
