Moving a piano can seem like a big task: it’s heavy, bulky, and very delicate.
But don’t worry—GoodSpace is here to help! Whether you’re moving, doing renovations at home, or just looking for more space, keeping your piano safe is super easy with our moving and self-storage services.
In this guide, we’ll explain:
•Why you might want to store a piano
•How to prepare it properly
•How GoodSpace can help you every step of the way
Let’s get started!
Why Store a Piano?
There are many reasons why you might want to store a piano:
•Moving: Your new home isn’t ready yet.
•Renovation: Dust, paint, or heavy tools could damage it.
•Lack of space: Sometimes you just need to make some room.
•Gift or sale: You want to keep it safe until it’s time to give it away or sell it.
A piano can’t just be left in the garage. It needs a clean, dry, and secure place. And that’s where GoodSpace self-storage comes in.
How to Prepare a Piano for Storage
Before putting your piano in storage, it’s important to prepare it properly. Here’s how:
1. Clean It
Gently clean the piano with a soft cloth. It should be dry and dust-free.
2. Close and Lock the Lid
Close the keyboard lid and, if it has a lock, use it. This protects the keys from dust and damage.
3. Wrap It in Blankets
Use moving blankets or thick towels to wrap it. This helps protect it from bumps.
4. Keep It Upright
The piano should always stay in a vertical position. Never lay it down!
5. Choose the Right Space
The space shouldn’t be too tight. It’s better if there’s a bit of airflow around it.

What Kind of Space Does a Piano Need?
Most upright pianos fit easily in our small or medium storage units.
If you have a grand piano, we may recommend a larger space. No worries—we’ll help you choose the right one.
You can also come visit us at our Cologno Monzese (MI) location to see the spaces in person.
Final Tips Before Storing Your Piano
•Tune it after storage: It’s normal for it to go a bit out of tune during downtime.
•Don’t place items on top: They could damage it.
•Label everything: If you’re storing other items too, labels help you find things easily.
