[pianotech] Moving a piano from Los Angeles to Fairbanks

Alan,
What city in Alaska are you referring to? We just shipped a grand piano from here (Seattle) to Haines Alaska  via the weekly Alaskan Marine Lines barge -- takes about 3 to 5 days to most Alaskan points. The piano had to be crated and completely sealed to prevent moisture damage. Air freight is the safest mode but most Alaska towns don't have air freight terminals.

  List, 


  Any recommendations for transporting a seven foot grand from L. A. to the "Gateway to the Arctic"?  Winterizing advice also welcome. :-)


  Thanks,
