text: A good piano can last an incredibly long time with regular maintenance, but nothing lasts forever and once a piano reaches the end of it life, it needs to be properly recycled. This really is a specialist job; one for the experts. When you ask The Piano Shop Bath to recycle a piano, we’ll remove it from your house and take it to our Workshop where anything useful can be stripped away and used to restore other pianos. It then needs to be dismantled safely; a strung piano frame holds potentially tonnes of pressure and great care is needed.
  Piano Assessment
  We'll never dispose of a piano which could be still be useful. We'll check over your piano and let you know whether your piano is best sold or recycled
  We’ll look over your piano and check to see whether it truly is beyond repair and restoration and therefore suitable to be recycled
  Removal for Recycling
  We will then move your piano to our workshop where parts can be recycled for the restoration of other pianos
  We never dispose of any parts which may be useful, so when we firstly move your piano to our workshop, we make sure anything which may be useful in restoring other pianos is removed
  Recycling and Disposal
  The piano is then taken for full recycling
  Piano recycling then sees any remaining metal parts stripped and smelted, with useful wooden parts taken for other purposes or used to generate power
