Pianos generate sounds, which avid music enthusiasts describe as “mellow,” “bright,” “rich,” and “splendid.” Pianos are played by musicians, religious organizations, business establishments, cruise ships, wedding locations, Broadway musicals, concert halls, opera halls, and concert halls. The life expectancy of a good piano is 40 years if properly maintained.
While some musicians are fully content with their piano for its lifespan, others are not that happy. As new technology and designs are released, your piano gets old. In fact, this is the way some owners see their pianos after just the first few years of using.
If you decide it’s the right time to replace your old piano, locate a removal company because of the next task. The junk elimination service has helped hundreds of residents and companies. We pick up, haul away and deliver used pianos at a dump, collection center recycling facilities, or waste transfer center.
Is It Legal To Dispose Of An Old Piano In A Community Dumpster?
Yes and no, because it depends on your municipality’s garbage disposal laws. Some cities accept large items, such as a piano but only if placed in a landfill. The dumpster could also belong to an area-based garbage collection service provider. Don’t throw your old piano into a nearby dumpster before verifying the legalities.
Prepare Your Old Piano For Recycling
It is possible to recycle the piano you have had for a while. But it might not be possible until you have disassembled your old piano. Recycling facilities accept large pianos but only when broken down into pieces. In this case, you’ll need to disassemble the piano to determine which parts are recyclable and which ones are not.
Components made of metal, wood, and plastic could be recycled. Electronic components can also be eligible to be recycled. If you have any concerns, you can reach the recycling center directly.
Our Piano Removal Made Easy
Pianos are big pieces, weighing between 300 and 1,400 pounds. The piano is sold as a whole unit. The larger the piano requires more human resources to complete the installation process. When you decide to junk your piano, you’ll need the same amount of labor that you did for the initial installation. Employing a dolly reduces hiring a team of workers to move and set up the piano. This is also true for the removal procedure.
Our commercial and residential piano removal services are easy to access, affordable, flexible, and customizable. We use special equipment to uninstall and disassemble, then remove and dispose of heavy pianos.
When you engage our junk removal service to get rid of the piano you’ve had for a while, we’ll dispatch a team of experts to your home. An experienced expert will evaluate your piano and decide on the best removal method to avoid the possibility of mishaps that can result in injuries by a member of our junk removal crew.
We will provide you with an estimated written estimate that you can verify before starting the piano removal strategy. If you approve, we will then send out the junk removal staff to begin the removal. First, we will move the piano into a safe place, after which it will be disassembled to prepare for recycling.
The piano is dismantled in a safe area, and the components are then loaded into the truck’s back. The pile of scrap is then hauled to a recycling facility for recycling.
How To Dispose Of A Piano Without Harming The Environment?
There are three options for disposal to dispose of old pianos. Each disposal method comes with pros and cons. For instance, the landfill disposal method isn’t as eco-friendly as donation and recycling. In addition, when pianos end up in landfills, they sit around for a long time, creating methane and carbon dioxide, harmful greenhouse gases.
Recycling This is one of the most environmentally-friendly methods of disposal, which allows the materials to be used for other purposes. For example, the wood will be broken down for OSB plywood (also known as mulch), pulp (paper), or grill wood chippings.
Donation – This will give your piano the chance to continue to function as an instrument and to play stunning melodies for years to be. This option is not appropriate for damaged permanent pianos. It is only suitable for pianos that are in good condition.
Dump – It is an excellent disposal option for permanently damaged pianos. Dumping them in the trash older pianos release greenhouse gas emissions that are harmful to the environment.
