Choose a removals company that is in tune with your needs
No house move is ever the same and some of you might have particularly delicate, precious or musical belongings that need to be safely transported from your current property to your new home.
We are, of course, talking about pianos. Here at Removals Unlimited, we’re professional piano movers. That means our team have a great deal of experience of moving all kinds of piano, whether you have an upright, baby grand or grand piano that needs to be transported to a new location.
We understand that pianos are not only highly specialist and delicate instruments, but also that, for many people, they are very precious because of the memories associated with them. You can rest assured that we take the utmost care with every piano we handle and move and that we’ll always use the right tools for the job.
Our team are masters at finding the safest way of getting your piano out of one house and into another. We have specialist protective packing materials for pianos of all sizes, as well as specialist piano dollies and even the option of using a hoist if that is the best way of getting a piano out of your current abode.
Under the current circumstances, it might be more tempting than ever to attempt a DIY house move, even with a piano, but as an article for House Beautiful recently pointed out, doing so could be a big financial mistake.
The publication cited figures from GoCompare, which found that 78% of home insurance policies only cover removals if the contents of your home have been packed and moved by a specialist removals company.
Even if your insurance policy does allow for you to pack and move items yourself, often there will still be exclusions surrounding valuable or delicate possessions or pieces of furniture. What’s more, 12% of home insurance policies don’t provide any moving cover at all.
This is yet another reason to use a removals company in Christchurch, or wherever you live. We have full insurance for all of our moving services, including moving specialist items such as pianos. As well as £5 million liability insurance, we also have £50,000 in-transit insurance, so in the unlikely event that your instrument is damaged on the way to your new property, you can rest safe in the knowledge that repairs will be paid for.
If you want to see how we handle piano moves, you can even watch a video of our professional piano movers moving a baby grand piano.
We recently stumbled across a story from Classic FM about one pianist in Venice who has really challenged his piano movers. Paolo Zanarella recently took to a barge on Venice’s canals to provide an impromptu piano concert to those living in the city, playing his grand piano for an hour as he drifted along the peaceful waterways.
We’ve never moved a piano to quite such an unusual spot, but we have helped many families with their piano moves over the years. Get in touch with us today to request a free, no-obligation home survey via video and we’ll talk you through our process for moving not only your piano, but your other belongings too.
