There are lots of reasons why you may be planning to get rid of your piano.<\/p>\n

Perhaps it\u2019s out of tune and the parts are getting older and you don\u2019t want to spend the money to repair it. Or perhaps you own a music school and you want to get rid of your older models in favor of new ones. Maybe you had good intentions at the beginning but you haven\u2019t touched it in years. Or maybe it takes up too much space and you\u2019re looking to downsize.<\/p>\n

Whatever the case may be, removing and disposing of a piano, large or small, simple or complex, is never easy. You may assume because your piano is old or has been in your family for generations that you can get good money for it. Not so. Most people will have a tough time even finding someone who will take it off their hands for free!<\/p>\n

In general, pianos hold no value as furniture, only as a working instrument. Even then, it\u2019s hard to find a serious musician who will buy it from you for any amount of money. And if your piano has sat unused for years, with chipped or out of tune keys or cracked soundboards, it\u2019s useless to serious musicians. In this case, you will have to actually PAY someone to remove it for you.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how you can get rid of that old piano that\u2019s collecting dust.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Donate It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Music centers, schools, local charity shops or Goodwill stores may accept donations of used pianos. They may be of use to a beginner player just starting out. You can list it online or call local charities to see if they will pick it up from your location. Hit up websites like pianoadoption.com,<\/a> which is a classified ads site strictly for pianos.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sell It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you really want to get some cash for your piano and it still looks good and works well, you may be able to get $50 to $100 for it. But that\u2019s a big IF. It will all depend on the buyer you get and what they\u2019re willing to pay for it, as well as its condition.<\/p>\n

When selling and posting online, be sure to take quality photos of the piano and write up a detailed description.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Trash It<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Most people will have to just throw away their old piano, either because they don\u2019t want to be bothered with donation or sales, or because they have exhausted all the above avenues and just want the instrument gone. This option costs money. You will either have to pay a pro to haul it out of your house OR convince a couple friends to help you schlep it out of your house, load it onto your truck and bring it to the landfill — for a fee.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hire a Professional<\/h3>\n

Removing a piano yourself is the worst thing you can do, as it\u2019s very likely that you will hurt yourself, or damage the surrounding walls and floors as you attempt to navigate it out of your house.<\/p>\n
