MOVING EQUIPMENT AND HARDWARE

These items are a special result of my experience moving many times in Africa and the USA. I mixed those experiences with my knowledge of moving pianos, and I believe I have come up with a selection of products which you usually don't find on piano related Web sites or in music stores. It is often necessary to go find something to solve a problem-- something that was not at first intended for piano related use. That is the case here to a large degree. I hope we are a help to you. I must warn you that you give the final verdict. If you do not care to take full responsibility for the use of these products, you should not buy them. I cannot promise you that nothing can go wrong in the use of these products. If you are comfortable taking charge of your environment though, I believe these products will actually make moving your piano safer to you, your house, and the piano.

PROTECTIVE MEASURES

 

 

 

Moving Rubber Bands

Rapidly secure furniture pads tight to the piano.
Then finish off with Stretch Wrap as explained above.
The problem with furniture pads is that a carton or sharp
edged item next to the piano can catch the pad and work
it as the truck shakes.
This can make a rubbed spot in the piano finish.

These will come in very handy for years after you move.


PRICE:
S-RBS -- Black -- 54 inches long -- $ 20.00 per Dozen
S-RBM -- Black -- 61 inches long -- $ 21.00 per Dozen
S-RBL -- Black -- 72 inches long -- $ 22.00 per Dozen
Sold only in Dozens

Customer feed back: One fellow reports he covers his patio furniture when leaving home,
but the wind blows the covers off, so he wraps the covered furniture with our rubber bands.

 

Organ and Piano Covers-- Custom Made


Form Fitting
Sock type construction with pad binding on all edges.
This is not a decor item. It is ideal for two purposes:
1. For moving your piano
2. For concert halls and schools to store the piano
and discourage brats from getting into the piano.

as in the illustrations below.

SKATES !

This is a new invention and a very hot item at my supplier's store.
The skate have a hard foam rubber backing which grips the corners or legs of the load.
The face of the skate is very slippery poly plastic which slides on the carpet of floor surface.
Beside moving day, these skates could be left under a piece of home equipment which needs
to be moved back and forth across a room, perhaps by an elderly person.
While the skates would not work with a piano with casters attached, the skates could be used
under a skid board to move across carpet.

Sold in sets of four.

Price: $ 42.00 per set of four
