East Weymouth, Massachusetts Piano Restoration

At Modern Piano Moving, we’ve handled every shape, size, and style of piano under the sun. From compact spinet pianos to mammoth concert grands, we’ve moved them all. But not every piano is created equal when it comes time to transport them. The history and evolution of piano design has resulted in drastically different instruments that require specialized moving techniques.

At Modern Piano Moving, we’re experts at safely relocating pianos year-round. However, the spring and summer seasons present their own unique challenges that we have to proactively plan and adjust for. Things like increased heat and humidity can have major impacts on the materials that pianos are constructed from – primarily woods, felts, and intricate metal components. Even just a few hours of exposure to extreme conditions can potentially cause expensive damage.

Keeping your piano clean is an important part of maintaining it in good condition. When it is regularly cleaned, your piano will play at its best. When it hasn’t been cleaned, dust can enter the soundboard and damage the piano’s internal components. Unfortunately, moving causes a lot of dust. During this transition, your piano is at its most vulnerable. Read and remember the following tips to prevent your piano from getting too dirty during your move.
