How to Tell When it’s Time for Piano Disposal

Do you have a piano that’s been in your family for generations? An instrument so loved and with so many memories? But when you sit down to play, one of the keys just doesn’t sound like it used to or maybe doesn’t play at all. Or maybe the exterior of the piano is damaged and cracked after years of love and memory making.

Pianos are the most complex instrument, each with thousands of moving parts that must work together in harmony to create music. However, when some of those parts stop working, the once soothing music becomes just a memory.

When it’s time to consider piano disposal in St Paul, Piano Movers Extraordinaire is here to help you through your decision.

Is it Worth Repairing Your Piano?

Sometimes deciding to let go can be hard, and that’s okay. You should be completely sure of your decision and that’s why we recommend considering whether it’s worth it to repair your piano. Sometimes a repair may be worth the money that it would cost to fix it, but that’s not always the case.

We highly recommend that before you decide to dispose of your old piano, that first you consider reconditioning. We even have recommendations for piano restorers and refinishers to contact in the area to make it easier for you!

Once you have received estimates on how much it would cost to repair your piano, it’s time for you to make your decision. Is your piano worth repairing?

When making your decision, here are some questions for you to consider:

-        Is the original quality good enough to restore?

-        Will it cost more to repair it than to replace it?

-        Is the overall condition of the piano good?

These three questions can help ease your mind that you are making the right decision, no matter what choice you end up making. The last thing you need when disposing of a treasured family artifact is the regret that maybe you should have done more.

What is the Right Way to Dispose of a Piano?

Need to part with your piano? There is a right way and a wrong way to go about it. While your first instinct may be to donate or sell your piano, these options can often cause more harm than good. Many aren’t aware that their donated piano, even with the best of intentions, often ends up as a burden on the institution they’ve donated it to. Institutions become populated with so many inappropriate instruments they themselves need to hire professionals to have them taken away; costing them money.

Avoid adding to this problem and schedule proper piano disposal from the experts. At Piano Movers Extraordinaire we offer piano disposal for Anoka County and the surrounding areas and we would like to tell you more about it, its benefits as well as what you can expect from this service.

While your old piano may still look pretty good, many pianos are actually in disrepair and unplayable. In some cases, a piano technician can fix the inside of the piano while a furniture refinisher can restore the outside. But, for many pianos, it is simply not cost effective to restore them. At some point, the piano no longer becomes worth spending the money to restore. If restringing is needed, this could cost hundreds. When this is the case, then it is ready for disposal. If you determine your piano unable to be or too expensive to be repaired, this is where we come in. We can help with the disposal of old or broken piano.

It is important to know you can’t just throw the piano out on the curb for the garbage service to pick up. Pianos require special disposal and Piano Mover sExtraordinaire is here to provide this very service.
