Piano Moving in Orient, NY

Looking for piano moving in Orient? Piano work here runs into the same three obstacles again and again: a narrow staircase with a turn at the landing, a front stoop with a railing in the way, and a finished basement where the instrument has lived for thirty years. Getting the measurements before the day is what keeps a piano move from becoming a problem on the doorstep.

Moving in Orient

Orient is a hamlet in the Town of Southold, covered by ZIP code 11957. Our yard is in Lake Ronkonkoma, so Orient is a short run for our trucks and we can usually offer same-day or next-day slots.

Uprights versus grands

An upright stays upright. It gets wrapped, tipped onto a piano dolly, and steered, and the difficulty is almost entirely in the weight distribution and the turns. Spinets and consoles are the manageable end. Full uprights and old player pianos are considerably more than they look.

A grand does not travel assembled. The lid is secured, the lyre and pedals come off, one leg comes off, and the instrument is lowered onto a padded skid board on its bent side, then strapped down and moved on the board. Baby grands and concert grands are the same procedure at different weights.

What we ask before quoting

The details that matter are practical ones: which floor, whether there is an elevator and whether it has to be booked, how close the truck can get, and what your building requires in writing. We would rather sort that out at quote time.
