Any tips? This is from one town to another town about a 150 miles away..

How to get it on the van, secure it down etc.

And how do you get it through a front door?


I'm a pessimist so I'd start with prior questions:

-Â*Â*Â* will I get sued if I break it?
-Â*Â*Â* will I you lose, ahem, "benefits" if I break it?
-Â*Â*Â* do I have a good excuse to get out of it?

If you're set on the job, the only important lesson I learnt from
personal experience as a helper many years ago was that the legs can
come off in a somewhat destructive failure mode if you push it.Â* (I
couldn't find a suitable funny video of that - just a boring lecture
from professionals on that and other things not to do

It's a three job in two days type of thing. I will not get sued if it
goes tits up.

1. I go to Watford to do some work.



Interestingly the piano I sold (see my previous post) was in my house in Watford :-)
