A home is something to be proud of! You try your best to keep it in its best condition and to take good care of it.

When moving a piano it is important that you don’t cause any damage to the piano itself but also to your house in the process.

Do you know what caster cups are? They are little round or square coverings that are placed under big and heavy furniture items- couches, pianos, tables etc. They help prevent scratches and damage to any floor surfaces in your house and where you are moving your furniture. These are a great option to assist moving your piano over the hardwood floors. They usually have felt bottoms which provide a smooth and steady covering to separate the feet of the piano from the hardwood floors.<\/p>\n
Another trick to swiftly move your piano from one spot to another without damaging hardwood floors, is to use a dolly. They easily glide over the floors and are very easy to manipulate and move around. This is a common tool used by movers in order to safely and quickly move your piano.<\/p>\n
