Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Are there any steps involved? And is there any help with loading and unloading possible? If so I will place a bid. Thank you (4/5/2006)
Response: there is no one at this time to help in carrying the piano. Could get some help at delivery end. There are two steps at pick up and two steps at delivery. (4/5/2006)
Question: Can you tell me what size steps there is? I can probably get this if someone could be there to help support it. (4/6/2006)
Response: The possibility of getting someone that I know to help you support it is not good. I have not been to the place of pick up, but I called and they said it was 3 steps outside the door and they are about 31/2 feet wide. Here, at my house, there is a backdoor entrance onto a porch which has 2 steps that are about 3 ft. wide. This is not a job for one person, I know. Thepiano's exact measurements I just recieived, 5'long, 3.5' high, 2.5'deep. The approximate weight is higher than I thoought, in between 340 -380lbs. (4/6/2006)
