The city of Perth is tightly-packed, and its streets can be difficult to navigate when transporting a large object such as a piano. The city has many designated laneways that are much smaller than five metres, and several back streets where a group of four might be tempted to bring a piano through. If you’ve been tempted to do so, resist the urge to do so.

The Characteristics of a Piano that Necessitates Hiring Piano Movers
You’ve just bought a new home in Perth and you’ll be moving soon. One of your belongings is a piano. When it comes to moving, pianos have special requirements. In general, intricate musical instruments share this characteristic, but pianos are even more complicated because of certain factors. Moving it by yourself should never actually be an option. Having it handled by professional piano movers is a must. Why? Weight The most noticeable difference of pianos to other musical instruments, as well as other household items, is the weight. Piano World cites, from Larry Fine’s The Piano Book, the common weights of pianos. Smaller types weigh around 135 to 225 kilograms (300-500 pounds) and full-size uprights around 315 kilograms (700 pounds). Grand pianos are a whole different story as they can weigh upwards of 455 kilograms (1000 pounds) with concert grands reaching about 590 kilograms (1300 pounds)!
