Question:

6/19/2012

where are the locations for pickup and delivery, will it be in the garage and going to a garage

Response: At my home in MD, piano is in living room with easy access to front door which has 2 steps to porch and to steps to sidewalk leading to driveway. The drop off would be very much the same in OH: driveway to sidewalk up a few steps (4, I think) to front door with easy access to living room.6/20/2012

Response: : IS THERE HELP ON BOTH ENDS6/20/2012

Response: Unlikely. Also, while the piano has casters, I understand it would not be wise to try and roll it. It would definitely require a large dolly and lifting.6/20/2012

Response: : ANYONE WOULD NEED HELP EVEN WITH MY 2 GUYS IF WILL BE HARD, ARE YOU SURE THERE IS NO ONE WHO COULD GIVE A HAND 6/20/2012

Response: It would depend on when you arrived at both ends of the trip, family members may be able to help but only one person on MD side and only one on the OH side. However, neither has moving experience and would need guidance. The piano has Queen Anne legs in the front which makes it a bit fragile.6/20/2012

Question:

6/21/2012

We always have 2 men on a move, and it sounds pretty easy. We wont need any help. We have all the proper equipment, and all we do is pianos. (Did I mention we are currently the low bidder, AND we are ranked #1 on uShip for piano moves) Hope we can earn your business! Dan W.

Response: Thank you for your interest. I am currently trying to decide if it would be affordable to add an 84" sofa to be delivered to the same location. How much more would you charge for that? Also, in reading some of the reviews, it does sound like you do a good job however some have mentioned some minor damage. What happens if that should occur to my piano?6/21/2012
