To minimize the risk of potential damage to your musical instruments, we recommend using an experienced moving company when planning to move music equipment within the Los Angeles area. Not all moving companies willingly agree to transport musical equipment or instruments due to their high cost, fragility, and the presence of movers on staff who have certain knowledge and experience. Considering that pianos usually weigh at least 500 pounds, it is extremely important to hire professional and strong movers. Based on our previous experience, our team has prepared a number of safe strategies for moving various types of musical items.
Our team has repeatedly moved studio equipment for SSL. Bulky and heavy consoles were safely transported by our professional movers. We have a wealth of experience in transporting private recording studios and small home studios. We have also serviced various concert venues and are familiar with the fact that there are often tight windows for the delivery of instruments before the event and strict deadlines for clearing the venue after the event. Let us know your special requirements and we will help make your move as safe and quick as possible.
Use Instrument Cases
If you have the original cases, be sure to place the item in them. They are specially designed for transporting and storing instruments and are ideal for this purpose. We can provide additional boxes or other protection if you do not have cases.
Check the weather
Most musical instruments and equipment are very sensitive to cold or wet weather, which can cause adverse effects. In any case, we can provide additional protection on such days.
Prevent Snapping of Strings
It is recommended to reduce the tension of stringed instruments whenever possible. This can minimize the risk of deformation or potential damage during the moving process.
Special Boxes for Drums
We recommend individually packing each component of the drum kit. Double-wall cardboard moving boxes usually provide the necessary protection.
Packing studio equipment
The best packaging for studio equipment is its original packaging. So, save it if possible. This can provide the best protection during the move.
