This also means that the contract needs to state a full value for the piano you would be happy with in case of total loss, like if they take it to the family picnic in the rain or something. 2) If you charge a deposit, they get it back within some small number of days after you get the piano (and bench) back in good condition. Again, local market forces will dictate what conditions you can impose without scaring away business, but I think any less than the above puts an unnecessary amount of the risk on your shoulders.
