Trying to get rid of our piano. It works fine just needs tuning. I have it on ebrandon. Any other ideas as to where I could donate it.

wants pianos anymore unfortunately. I had the same issue last year. I called church groups, schools, community centres, etc and had no luck giving it away. Ended up taking it out to the lake and had one heck of a great bonfire with it

Transporting a full sized piano is usually the big issue, my mom has one she wanted to give to me but I would have to transport it 4 hours from her place! It's not appealing. If the person selling/giving away the piano was willing to transport it just within the city instead of having the buyer try to find pick up/transport methods, I think you would have a lot more takers.

Please message me My daughter recycles them into art Thanks

Jan Trinder...I pm'd you.

Would you be interested in a piano if we delivered it curbside to your place for the price of fuel come summertime? It is most likely less than 4 hours to your place from here. I say summer because it is way too hard in winter & will be too sloppy in spring.  
 
We have given this offer to others within an hour of our place and they say no. We don't want to be responsible for damages should moving the piano damage the doorway or floor or something. That is why curbside.  
 
My point is, almost everyone wants everything for free, and it is a lot of work (and can take a lot of fuel) to move these. Also, so many people are conditioned to like the electronic sound more, and like the space saving and ease of moving aspect of an electronic piano. This makes it difficult to find new homes even for the best old piano.  
 
I wondered of someone could do with the pianos as they have in other large cities and have a few decorated and set out here & there outside for anyone to sit down & play. I would imagine they are covered in the rain and taken in for the winter.  
 
I suspect that Brandon is too small and that an appropriate place (street or area) doesn't exist. I have some ideas, but I am not sure anyone would agree to them.

Where is piano located? Any stairs? Thanks

It is nice you asked, but my mother would not like her piano being torn up to be made into jewellery pieces, as it was her mothers piano. She will probably donate it to a local church/school when she moves out of her current house in 10-15 years.

I was looking at the piano, and would be willing to pay transport fees if the piano was to be given away(free) but I do not have the space for a piano that size where I currently live, I was just trying to give you suggestions that maybe even if it was a free piano, if you transported it, maybe someone would be willing to pay a transport cost just to get it to their place versus having to pick it up.

Never got your messageLocation of piano? Thanks

Do you know how to get messages on eBrandon? I looked answer the message was sent. Up by your signed in name is a little envelope. If you see it flashing, that means you have a message waiting. ;)
