MISSION 07Kalamazoo, MIACTIVE
PAYLOAD / PIANOS

piano removal
kalamazoo.

Between WMU's music school and a century of Vine and Stuart neighborhood parlors, Kalamazoo has more pianos per block than most towns its size. The crew moves uprights, spinets, consoles and grands out of front rooms, down porch steps and up out of basements with the right dolly and the right crew count. An instrument that still plays gets offered a new home before it gets offered the truck.

PAYLOAD MANIFEST

What goes on the truck.

Loads with the crew

  • Upright, spinet, console and studio pianos
  • Baby grand and grand pianos, legs removed on site
  • Church and home organs, electric and pipe-console styles
  • Digital pianos and keyboards with stands
  • Benches, covers and sheet music cabinets

Stays behind, and why

  • Player piano mechanisms that need a specialist to disassemble, until you send a photo
  • Instruments the owner wants appraised first (the crew can wait, just say so)
PRE-FLIGHT

Before the crew arrives.

STEP 01

Measure the doorway and the tightest turn on the way out. Vine neighborhood houses have narrow front halls and the crew plans around your numbers.

STEP 02

Clear the top of the piano and empty the bench.

STEP 03

Say where it sits: ground floor, basement, or up a flight. Each changes the crew size.

STEP 04

Tell the crew if you want it rehomed. Playable uprights in Kalamazoo have real demand from churches and student musicians.

PRICING

How it is priced.

A piano in Kalamazoo is a flat per-instrument price. The base is an upright on the ground floor with a clear route. Basement stairs, a second floor, a grand that needs legs pulled, or a long carry on a Richland lake lot each add a stated amount, and you have the whole number before anyone lifts.

SPLASHDOWN

Where it lands.

Playable pianos are offered first to churches, schools and music programs around Kalamazoo County, and student demand near WMU and K College means uprights often find a home quickly. Instruments past saving are broken down: harp and strings to a metal recycler, hardwood case separated, the small remainder to a licensed facility.

QUESTIONS ABOUT PIANO REMOVAL

Mission log.

The Kalamazoo crew answers these on the phone every day. Here they are in writing.

(269) 788-1199
A PERSON ANSWERS. NOT A CALL CENTER.
Q 01Can you get an upright out of a Vine neighborhood second floor?

Yes, using three movers and a stair dolly. Send a photo of the stairs and the landing. If the handrail has to come off, the crew removes it and reinstalls it.

Q 02Do you move grand pianos in Kalamazoo?

Yes. Legs and lyre come off, the body is wrapped and tipped onto a skid board, and it rolls out on edge. Three movers, one flat price.

Q 03Will a student near WMU take my old upright?

Often. Playable uprights are in demand near campus, especially in August. Tell the crew and they try their contacts first.

Q 04Is piano removal priced by weight or by the hour?

Neither. Flat per piano, with stairs and access called out ahead of time.

Q 05Will the piano damage my floors?

It should not. Runners go down from the piano to the door and the skid board has padded rails. Old oak floors in the Stuart neighborhood get extra care.

Q 06Can you take the piano and the rest of the room together?

Yes. The piano is flat priced and the rest is by the load. One trip beats two.

Q 07How quickly can you pick up a spinet in Portage?

Usually next day. Pianos need a specific crew size and the dispatcher books them around that.

Q 08Do you pick up pianos in Battle Creek?

Yes. Battle Creek stops are grouped on the same day as other eastern Kalamazoo County work.
