Yes, next time I move I will sell or donate my $100,000 piano and simply buy a new one in the new place.

Having had a piano (an older Yamaha upright not even a grand) damaged in a move in the past - I will NEVER EVER allow general movers, no matter how highly rated they are, to handle any expensive musical instruments of mine.

A couple of my friends have used Modern Piano Moving in the past to move a concert grand reliably and they seem to be pretty highly rated.

A guy near me literally gave away a Steinway piano. Like, a real one worth at least 8K (verified it online).

Me being too slow to get it is one of my great regrets in life.

Or just don’t have one? Most people don’t own $100,000 pianos and somehow they make do.
