Piano removal in San Diego
An upright piano is heavy, tall, and unforgiving on door casings. Bulk junk removal is how San Diego homes get one out without recruiting the whole block.
Pianos are bulky items: they will not fit a residential bin, they are too heavy to tip into a car, and they need a large truck. Uprights are the usual job. Grands are confirmed from photos because the lid, harp, and legs change the carry.

The crew moves it, watches the jambs, and does not drag it across the floor. No dings or dents is the standard, not a slogan we hope for.
