Piano Removal
in Itasca
The weight you cannot see is the whole problem, and it is the part we handle. Serving Itasca from our shop in Plainfield.
We take the weight off your hands
The hardest part of getting rid of a piano is the weight you cannot see, since the cast-iron plate and strings inside push an upright to 300 or 500 pounds and a grand even higher. All that mass concentrated up top means the piano leans and lurches if it is not strapped down right. A staircase turns a heavy, unstable load into a real hazard. Our crew brings the dollies, straps, and padding to keep it steady and does every bit of the carrying.
Itasca sits near the Route 390 corridor and I-290 along Salt Creek, and we reach it via taking I-355 up to I-290, so same-day often works when the schedule allows. The village route wants bulk items small enough for one worker to handle and keeps carpet rolls under 60 pounds, which leaves a piano far outside what the curb will take. Text a photo and we will quote the full job before we load up.
Pianos we remove in Itasca
Upright pianos
An upright goes on the dolly strapped tight, because the iron frame makes it pitch forward the moment it tilts.
Studio and console uprights
Tall uprights are easy to misjudge in a doorway, so we guide them through with a hand on each side.
Baby grand pianos
We take off the legs and lyre, set the case on a padded skid, and carry it out flat and supported.
Grand pianos
The case and frame of a grand come apart in sequence, keeping the heaviest piece balanced on the way down.
Player and antique pianos
Extra mechanism and dense old wood add real weight, so we work out the path before the first lift.
Organs and digital pianos
Heavy organs, weighted digital pianos, and their benches go out together in one load.
How the removal goes
Send a photo of the piano and the way it has to come out, and we price the entire job flat before we begin. On the day we lay protection, strap the piano to a dolly, and ease it through the doors and down any stairs under control. A tight landing gets the piano taken apart instead of wedged through. The quoted price is what you pay, by the load, with nothing added at the end.
- Priced by the load, quoted first
- Dollies and straps on every piano
- Floors, walls, and stair edges padded
- Disassembled for narrow doors or turns
- All lifting and carrying is ours
- Usable pianos donated, the rest recycled
