Why risk personal injury and damage to your instrument and home by attempting to move an instrument yourself. Often when it comes to moving a piano, the first thoughts are - I can save a lot of money by doing it myself. This usually means getting some friends together to muscle out your piano, put it in a truck and get it to its new home.

Just think, you can escape injury to yourself and others who you may have talked into helping to do a move that no one knows, for sure, how to proceed. And, it won't be necessary for you to try fixing holes in the wall or scratches on the floor because of unexpected bumps or unintentional dragging of a heavy instrument across easily marred floors.

American Music World Buys Pianos From Individuals

There are times, in the need to move to a new distance location or upon the death of a family member, that it's necessary to part with a piano that you and your family have enjoyed for many years. It's at these times, there is often very limited time or opportunity to find a new home for this treasured instrument through normal channels of advertising.

American Music World  is willing to schedule a free home consultation (in the Chicago land area) and evaluation of the piano you need to sell. Often an outright purchase of your instrument can be arranged, relieving you of one more detail to be completed.

We've even been able to arrange a trade-in value of an instrument that needed to be sold that could be used toward a different styled instrument - player pianos, digital pianos, organs, keyboards - or that another family member can take advantage of toward their purchase of an instrument.
