Moving a piano in Kyiv: what you need to know before submitting a car
Pianos cannot be counted as ordinary furniture. Weight, center of load, hull protection, working on ladders and a sufficient number of people in the crew are important here. If the application is made inaccurately, the risk of damaging the tool and the walls in the entrance increases many times.
For normal transportation, you need to immediately inform the model, the approximate weight, the floor, the presence of an elevator, the width of the aisles and whether it is necessary to carry the tool over a long distance to the car. It helps to choose the right team without improvising on the spot.
What affects the cost of transporting a piano
The price depends not only on the distance. The main factors are: floors, type of stairs, the possibility of using the elevator, the difficulty of the approach to the house, the type of packaging and the number of porters. If the piano needs to be lowered down narrow passages, this is a separate scenario that cannot be evaluated as an ordinary apartment move.
How to prepare the tool for transportation
Before transportation, covers, pedals, moving elements are fixed, corners, sides and the keyboard part are protected. If there are decorative protrusions or weak areas of the case, they are additionally packed with soft protection. It is not worth it to pull a piano on your own without straps and experience.
What information is better to give the carrier
A simple request works best: tool photo, loading address, Delivery address, floors, elevator availability and time window. So the calculation will be much more accurate. If you need to transport the piano together with other furniture, this should also be indicated, so as not to get a crew that is too small.
