dropped piano

[Joe And Penny Goss]

Hi,
if you have slick floors, you can
tip the piano onto a broom covered with a towel or throw rug.
The towel is to protect the finish and the broom to help guide the piano
toward where you can tip it back down.  Pianos on end tip over so easily.
They need to be pushed or pulled down LOW>
If you have a rug on the floor, use a slick on oneside, ply wood panel with the rough side down with 
the rug broom idea.
My Dollies 2 are ment to be able to roll the piano on end as well as upright.{ "SELPO" } so I do not do it this way. <g>

  If you have a dolly that is high enough to make the first (or with leaning back, the second) of the second landing it will work.   A friend tried such a move with no such dolly and it dind't work.

  Speaking of moving a piano, is it possible for me to have my wife's piano moved to our apartment that we just moved into?  It has 8 steps going up and there's a turn on a landing before one can head toward our door.  Is it going to be possible to get  a Kimball artist console up the steps with enough clearence to turn it in order to get it into the living room?  Thanks for your ideas in advance.

    List,
    I've got a client who dropped their wurly spinet during a move. Sides are pulling away from the plate , and the keybed is now all screwed up. It gets better when I pull the piano back to original position. What would be your best remedy for this problem?
    Thanks,
    Rick Ucci/Ucci Piano
