Seriously, how do piano movers/people move grand or baby grand pianos to places, anywhere? But especially to either small spaces, up stairs, or for example, an apartment/penthouse in a tall building in NYC? I know it happens. It seems very difficult. Explain plz haha

edit for punctuation because my keyboard is broken oh 2nd edit – yeah genuinely no pun intended with the word “keyboard”

In NYC if it’s too big for the elevator they block the street and hire a crane. They then bring it in though the window. Have to remove the windows sometimes. The illegal way is to bring the service elevator to the basement, force the doors open on the first floor and put the piano on top of the elevator car.
