I am looking into buying a new Kawai K3 but it can only be brought upstairs through a window. The Kawai K3 specs are H 48 L 60 D 24. My window for that room is 51 x 35 inches. That is with just removing the two windows and not the frame of the window. IS there a minimum size movers need to have to do this? I am not familiar with the rigging and equipment. Anyone have any knowledge of this sort of thing? Thanks!

OK I'll take one and post it. Give me a minute to upload this. Would it be better to send it to you in an E-mail? Thanks

You might want to check with the movers before deciding this. It is very rare for there to be a stairway that movers cannot negotiate with an upright piano - if they are real piano movers!
Through the window sounds very difficult, but of course is possible. The piano will likely have to be moved in laying on it's back using a lift truck with long forks (like a forklift). So you will need good access to the window as well. Lanscaping might be damaged.
