You might call George Golka, here in Houston. He does a lot of the 9-foot moves, and some really serious stuff (historic) cross-country, and normally gets short-term extra insurance, I think, He is at 713-899-0280. les bartlett _____ From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of Mark Dierauf Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 7:07 AM To: Pianotech List Subject: Re: Insurance rider for transportation The quote I got was from my own property carrier. Don't get me wrong - I'll happily pay that for the piece of mind. It's just that I've heard many times from various people that this sort of thing was done all the time for a relatively insignificant cost, and I'd hate to pay a lot more than is really necessary. - Mark Erwinspiano at aol.com wrote: Mark If you were the one insuring these pianos what would you charge?

That's what we use currently Just a thought Dale I need to move 2 restored S&S B's out of state to a recital hall for an "on site selection", and wanted to take out a temporary rider to cover their value during transportation. When I called my own insurance Co, I got a quote of $605 for $105k, which gets me coverage for an entire year (I only need three days). Has anybody ever had to deal with this?

I've heard from customers who routinely transport high value artwork that this is routinely done for far less. - Mark Dierauf _____ See what's free at AOL.com <http://www.aol.com?ncid=AOLAOF00020000000503> .
