A piano enquiry produces a list of questions that can feel like bureaucracy. Each one changes something concrete about the job, so here is what each is actually for.
Just-In-Time Moving moves pianos across Salt Lake City and Salt Lake County.
About the instrument
What type, and the make and model? Usually printed inside the lid or on the back. This tells us the weight, and the range within uprights alone is wide enough to change the crew size. A small spinet and a full-size studio upright are different jobs.
For a grand, the length? Measured from the front of the keys to the far end of the case. It determines the board and whether the instrument will pass a turn or fit a lift.
Is anything loose, worn or previously repaired? Particularly casters and legs, which are handled every time and are where wear concentrates.
About the route
How many stairs, and do they turn? The turn matters more than the count. A straight flight is predictable; a turn is where the geometry either works or does not.
What is the ceiling height above the turn? The question nobody expects. A piano is tilted to get round a corner and the tilt needs headroom, and in older houses a low ceiling over a half-landing is frequently the binding constraint.
How wide is the narrowest doorway? Interior doors especially, which are usually narrower than the front door.
What is between the truck and the door? Steps, a slope, gravel, a long path. In the older central neighbourhoods this outside stretch is often the hardest part.
About the destination
Which room, exactly? Because a piano is moved into a room once and stays for years, and moving it again later is a second job.
Where are the vents? An interior wall away from heating and cooling vents and out of direct sun is where it should end up. Airflow cycles are harder on an instrument over time than the move is.
The one that helps most
Photographs. Of the staircase, the turn, the landing and the approach. They answer several of the above at once and more reliably than any description.
