What should I do to move a piano in Beijing, or what should I pay attention to if I only have one piano at home and ask a moving company to move it? I suggest you choose an experienced, formal and professional moving company when moving the piano. Because the internal structure of the piano is extremely complex, once it encounters bump or vibration, it will easily lead to the damage of internal parts and even affect the intonation, so there is still a big difference in handling the piano and other items.
The seal driver has rich experience in piano handling, and he also learned that piano handling can not be completed once or twice. The following are the precautions for piano handling that Bian Xiao learned from SEALs, and I will share them with you today:
Upright pianos generally weigh 250kg, not to mention the larger grand piano. Therefore, professional piano moving companies will arrange 3-4 experienced piano moving masters to carry the piano at home, so as to ensure that the piano will be evenly stressed during the whole process, and will not be excessively tilted and collided because of one person's carelessness.
When loading the piano into the car, there are 2-3 people in front and 1-2 people in the back. The person in front carefully lifted the bottom of the piano, lifted it and put it on the car, then carefully pulled it on the car, and the person behind pushed it into the car, so that the piano could be loaded on the car smoothly.
After the piano is put into the car, it is best to lean against the front of the car with a layer of cotton pad or other soft packaging materials in the middle to prevent the piano back from colliding with the car. If the journey is long, it is best to pad two boards on the piano floor, so that it can be suspended and the friction between the piano and the carriage can be minimized.
After placing, wrap the piano with a quilt or blanket, and then tie the piano firmly to the car with a rope.
It is particularly important to note that the piano should not be carried or put on the back, nor placed in the center of the carriage, otherwise it will easily cause the piano to shake back and forth during driving and damage the internal parts.
In addition, vehicles loaded with pianos should go as slowly as possible to avoid sudden braking. The above are the precautions for piano handling. If you have a piano at home, don't worry. Choosing a professional moving company can help you solve these problems.
