I love my piano also, which is a Stienway grand that I plan to keep for a long time. I got professional piano mover to move it from a 3rd floor condo to a house. I let it sit for a few days then had a piano tuner come in to tune and do minor refinishing....
Take care and protect the things you love and cherish.

DH has an organ that we've moved I cant believe no one picked up on this Maybe you're all maturing. Or not. I did preface it with "God forgive me" because I saw someone taking it "that" way.

I bit my tongue Rick. And it still hurts. I wonder why it had to be moved. Was it in the wrong spot? Holy crap, dude, aren't you guys constantly adjusting it??

No, I didn't get it moved. I'm sorry. I should have updated everyone. But, I'm really kind of bummed about it. Sometimes, DH can't wrap his head around my great deals for things *I* want -- a rare enough event as it is. That problem is sometimes exacerbated by his own weak problem-solving skills; and recognizing my genuinely solid (albeit sometimes unconventional) problem-solving skills is even less of a strength for him. I'm not alone. He often rejects the kids' ideas as well. Oh well, we all have shortcomings, don't we? The piano may still be at the school unsold, I just don't know how to contact the guy who was running the surplus sale. I may just go ahead and email the principal next week when school is back in session and find out if it is still there and then try and hire someone to move it. It's only $100 and in great shape. And I've wanted one for a really long time. DH might just have to deal with it. In the meantime, a genuine "thank you" to all of you for *your* supportive and creative problem-solving skills. do you know about The Bloggess? Your post made me think of thebloggess.com/2011/06/and-thats-why-you-should-learn-to-pick-your-battles/ (warning: The Bloggess uses some colorful language...if you're offended by the F word don't click the link!)

How Can I Move a Piano 3 milesFunny how people & places are so different across the country. I saw the title of this thread (How Can I Move a Piano 3 miles) & my first thought was WTF? ? That's because here in central Tx not only does everybody know someone who drives a truck but just about every family has at least 1 person who drives a truck. Heck 50% (or more) of the vehicles here are trucks. Even the ultra rich people here drive bigger & more expensive trucks.
