Prepare a piano or pool table assessment in Mount Royal

A piano or slate table should be identified at the first enquiry, even when it is only moving across town.

Prepare a piano or pool table assessment

In this guide

For a Mount Royal move that includes a piano or pool table, the ordinary room inventory is not enough. Send the item’s details and the path from its current position to its final room. A basement installation, raised entrance or narrow stair turn can matter as much as the distance driven.

Identify the instrument or table

For piano moving, send the type, make, measured dimensions and clear photos. State what is known about the instrument’s condition and avoid guessing its weight. Explain whether parts have already been removed by a qualified person.

For pool-table moving, identify size, make and slate construction if known. Photograph the assembled table or group the already separated components in the inventory. Ask who is responsible for dismantling rather than experimenting before an assessment.

  • Send overall and detail photographs.
  • State unknown specifications honestly.
  • Identify existing separated components.

Check stairs and final placement

Use the basement furniture measuring guide to document doors, steps, landings and turns at both properties. Add photos that show the approach to each restriction. The route of individual slate sections may differ from the route of the assembled table.

Confirm the destination room and working space for the people finishing assembly. For a building with an elevator, obtain dimensions, capacity and permission from management. A route that works for a sofa does not prove it is appropriate for a specialist item.

  • Measure pickup and arrival restrictions.
  • Confirm the final room before delivery.
  • Share elevator specifications when relevant.

Agree on the specialist scope

Clarify protection, handling, dismantling, transport and reassembly in writing. Ask separately about piano tuning, table levelling and cloth work. These tasks should not be assumed to come with ordinary transport or automatically fit the same appointment.

Keep the handling area clear and children or pets away from the work route. Group labelled hardware if professional dismantling has already happened. Tell the team about any changed entrance before the agreed handling method is used.

  • Separate transport from finishing work.
  • Agree who supplies specialist labour.
  • Keep the confirmed route and work area clear.

What to remember

Identify the item, document both access routes and agree on each specialist task before preparation begins.
