How to protect a heavy piano while moving?

  Moving an awkward piano is a strenuous and so tedious task. We want to make moving easier and less stressful, so GetMovers made a guide for you!

First thing first, take measurements. It’s utmost important to measure not only the dimensions of the piano, but also any place in your home that the piano will pass through before the move! Make certain you measured all the doorways, stairwells, hallways, etc.

Second, find the appropriate packing and moving equipment and instruments to protect yourself and the piano. Gather the following items: plastic wrap, thick towels and blankets, heavy-duty tape for covering the instrument; dolly, straps, ramp for moving.

Then clear the moving way and remove all the items on your way. Next, wrap the piano (don’t forget to protect the piano keys and piano pedals with separate mind blankets or pads). Cover with a blanket or towels and tape to secure. Make sure you well protected the walls and floor on the path you’ll move it.

Once your piano is safe and thoroughly secured, lift it onto the four-wheel dolly with straps. Then rope it and move as careful as possible. When pushing the heavy piano board call some family members or friends to prevent any unwanted accidents. Finely push the instrument up the truck ramp and make sure you keep it positioned vertically.

Finally, follow the same sequence at your destination. Don’t forget to re-tune the piano and gibe it good cleaning.

As you see, moving the piano is not for the faint of heart. Your best decision is to hire a professional team from Getmovers and let them prevent damage and give you support in such a challenging task. Feel free to contact GetMovers for any moving or storage needs!

How to move your kitchen appliances and electronic devices in a safe manner?

   Need to move your stove, dishwasher, refrigerator or other kitchen appliance?

It may seem pretty simple to prepare for kitchen moving, but in fact, it can be a time-consuming and complicated task. So follow GetMovers’ advice to avoid any last-minute troubles.

1. Unplug and empty the electronics. Each unit should be secure plagued to the back (use a packing tape). Pay attention, the refrigerator must be unplugged no less than 24 hours in advance of the move.
2. Clean all the kitchen appliances. It would make the relocation much easier. Be alert with a stove and a microwave oven, it should be thoroughly cleaned inside and out. Be careful with gas lines! You may want to consult with your gas company.
3. Remove all the detachable parts, such as the shelves, containers, racks, holders, hoses, etc. and pack them separately in a box.
4. Wrap every single item with the packing blankets, bubble wrap, tape, straps, sliders, and other specialized equipment for secure protection. Our strong and well-trained movers would be glad to help with lifting and loading the heavy belongings, so please don’t move the large appliances by yourself.
