Musical Instrument Packing

If you are a musician, transporting your musical instruments can be a challenge. You want to ensure that your beloved instruments arrive safe and sound at their destination, but at the same time, you don’t want to break the bank on expensive packing materials.

The first step is to make sure you have the right materials for the job. You’ll need to find boxes or cases designed specifically for your instrument. This might be a hardshell case for guitars or something similar for drums and other percussion instruments. If you’re packing a piano, special wooden crating is usually the best option for ensuring it’s safe during transit.

Once you have the right type of case, you’ll need to make sure it’s properly secured. If you’re using a box, you’ll want to make sure it’s packed tightly with plenty of padding around the instrument. Bubble wrap and packing blankets are great for this. If you’re using a case, make sure all of the clips and latches are securely fastened. You may also need to use straps or shrink wrap to ensure that it doesn’t come open during handling.

For very large instruments such as pianos, it’s best to leave the packing and transportation to the professionals.
