How do you get rid of an unwanted piano?
You could try and sell it, but a piano’s value is exceedingly low, even for quality antique pianos. You could try giving it away, but again, who wants a big, heavy object like a piano these days?
- You could strip the piano piece by piece and make several trips to your local waste centre to dispose of it yourself.
- You could hire a van and transport it to a local waste station that may take your piano (not all do) and dispose of it.
Furthermore your piano won’t exactly go to waste because we strip old pianos and recycle them, the wood and metal both being recyclable materials.
