• Plan the route to the removal van
• Take into account any low-hanging or wall-mounted light fixtures
• Ensure that you can move around any tight corners for good strategy
• Remove tripping hazards, thus clearing the route to the van
• Have furniture moving dolly, blankets, good quality tape, and loading straps available
• Secure the lid of the piano so that it does not open when moved (NB: do not use tape directly onto the wood as it will damage it)
• Wrap the piano in blankets to protect it from scuff damage
