Greetings - Considering that we all must move pianos large and small away from people's walls from time to time for normal servicing, I would be interested in hearing what precautions/methods, if any, some of you employ when performing this task alone (which I assume, of course, is most always) when the piano is on a wood floor. I recall Ed recommended the use of strips of galvanized metal to use as runners. I also recall Jon suggesting using padding under each end and 'scooting' or sliding the piano across the wood floor. Any other suggestions or ideas? I admit to having taken no precautions for many years with absolutely no problem, but will now change my approach when the piano has metal casters and is on a wood floor. All ideas welcome!
