\nOne of the best ways to ensure your piano\u2019s safety and condition is to have professional movers<\/a> move your piano both in and out of the facility. Inquire if your storage unit facility has trusted movers available to help you move your piano. One of the biggest mistakes that people make is they think they can move their piano on their own and this is not the case. It poses a risk for both your safety and the safety of your piano.<\/p>\n
\nAsk questions like, how do you store the piano? Could you send me pictures of pianos in your storage facility? Make sure that they wrap your piano with special moving pads and have them stored safely and securely. Talk with them about your concerns and if your piano has anything special that they need to look out for or be aware of. Also, read what things to leave out from storage<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Smiling](\"https:\/\/wcmovingandstorage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Smiling-Couple-Searching-on-Laptop-2.jpg\")

\nIf you decide on having movers move your piano in and out of the facility, ask how easy that is. However unlikely it is that you will need your piano moved ASAP, it is nice to know when you will be able to move it in or move it out. You never know when you might have a leak in your house or get a new job but don\u2019t want to take your piano along with you but don\u2019t want to get rid of it either. So many factors can be involved and it\u2019s important to know what to expect!<\/p>\n
\nIf you are using a dual piano moving and storage<\/a> facility one of the most important questions that you can ask is if they are insured. This will help both you and them in making sure that you piano is in good hands in case anything were to happen on either end. No matter what industry or company you are working with, it is always a good reminder to make sure that they have the proper insurance coverage.<\/p>\n
