Question: Hi, I am in Orlando now, going back to the Poconos Pa, on weds morning, i will be doing another same run here next month same dates leave weds 18th return PA 19th of March, would gladly move this piano, i have 3 pianos moved through here, i have a 24' enclosed trailer with a back ramp door, if the dates work what target price did you have in mind? (2/16/2009)
Response: We have no idea what a proper price is. We know we do not have much money to spend on this. The piano was my parents and now that they have died we want to move it up here.
The piano is in Coconut Creek, less than a mile from the Florida Turnpike exit or just a couple of miles from an I-95 Exit.
Here in Bucks County, Pennsylvania we are a dozen miles north of Doylestown.
My brother would have to meet you this Wednesday, or I could meet you on March 18, but only in the evening, as I am taking a flight in and arrive Ft. Lauderdale Airport at 5:15 P.M. and could not get to the condo until 6:15 or 6:30 (realistically). And you probably want to leave in the morning of the 18th.
So, Wednesday would be best, if I can get hold of my brother and if he can get down there. He is an hour away and may not be able to get down there. I could not reach him this evening, but will keep trying.

Response: Hi, I will be here in March also, so if you can hold off till then we can work out details, i will work with a budget since i am going to the Poconos it wont be out of my path, can you wait & is $500 a good rate that would avg less than $0.50 a mile. Dan (2/16/2009)
Response: Yes we can wait. Could you pick up the piano on the evening of March 18 rather than earlier in the day?
As it turns out, March 18 is the one time all month that we can be there.

Response: Danny,
You had said you were leaving for Pennsylvania on Wednesday. I can have someone there with the piano tomorrow.
Could you also take some boxes? Not heavy. About 16 x 16 x 12". They all fit under the piano
Best to give me a call at [phone number removed] as soon as possible. I leave here at 1 PM this afternoon.

Question: well it is a baby grand,, just remember,, so,, what is your budget,, what can you afford,, remember cost of fuel, and our time,, be fair,, and if we think its fair, we will bid your price, thanks, bgs (2/16/2009)
Response: We do not have a price in mind. Nor do we have a budget. This piano was owned by my, now deceased, parents. Just give us your best price. Loading will be easy. The condo is first floor and right opposite the path to where the truck can park.
Delivery will need to be made by a straight truck as where we are can be a bit difficult of access for a semi. We can have workers here to help unload.
