I have a millstone . Its an old piano. Iron frame 1920's upright. Good

I
cant play and never use it. Its in the way. The trouble is no one else
seems to want it either. I have tried giving it away via the adds in the
paper. I have tried asking a house clearance to come and move it and even
said I would pay costs. No one will even come and take it to the tip for
me.

How do you get rid of a piano like this?

Local school, village hall, community centre, pub, old peoples' home, ...

If you said which town you're in/near, someone here might think of
a suitable local home for it.

When I was in the Scouts many years ago we used to get them given to us for
jumble sales - inevitably they didn't sell so we had piano smashing
competitions - to see which team could post the piano through a 1foot square
hole (IIRC). The frames would break with a sledge hammer. The piano wire was
a pest.
