I want to move an upright piano from my parents' place to my place. There are,
however, two problems:
- it's darned heavy
- it wont fit around a certain narrow hallway corner right-side-up.

The solution to the first problem is to hire piano movers to do the job. So
the first question is: can anyone recommend a good, cheap piano moving
company? Since the piano will need tuning afterwards, I'll lean more
towards a company that moves and tunes as well.

A possible solution to the second problem is to turn the piano on its end. So
the second question is: can one turn an upright piano on its end without doing
damage to the insides?

Many thanks in advance.
