OB Dave Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 That's what I would do. If there's a large backline equipment rental company (like Studio Instruments Rental or the equivalent) in your area, you might also try giving them a call.

WesG Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Or do it yourself. There are places that rent Roll-or-Kari dollies. You need a 28" set for that organ, and a nice thick moving blanket. Then rent something you can use to tow, and an enclosed trailer. Or call your local organ store / organ tech.

Doerfler Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I used a piano mover to move my A100 into my house. Best $200 I ever spent. I did move my current Leslie 142 myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamanczarek Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I had a team of three movers relocate a C3 (and an M102A) to the basement of a new residence. I have a set of Roll-or-Kari's but the movers preferred to use a standard heavy-duty hand truck. This actually worked better because the stairway is fairly narrow and there is a landing with a turn halfway down. The movers wrapped the Organ in heavy moving blankets and taped it up securely covering the whole cabinet. They put the organ on end with the top of the Organ resting on the hand truck. All went smoothly without any damage.

16251 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Just get in touch with somebody in your area who gigs nightly on their Hammond and are experts at moving them. I bet they'd help you for a small contribution. AvantGrand N2 | ES520 | Gallien-Krueger MK & MP | https://soundcloud.com/pete36251 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mate stubb Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 2 stairs or less: ROKs + 1 friend and yourself 3+ stairs: movers.

Steve Nathan Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I've found movers are often more comfortable just removing the back and lifting from the inner shelf.
