From time-to-time I find out that a piano becomes available, often at little or no cost. Spinet pianos are easily moved by 2 or 3 people, and I have a dolly that you can use. A pickup truck, van, or trailer can easily carry one -- I've done several. I will post the information here.
NEW post August 2025
I have information on 2 or 3 pianos that are available and would be free for the moving. Let me know if you are interested.

Story Clark. 38” tall. 60” wide. All keys work. Sounds pretty good to me but I don’t know when it was last tuned. Bench included. Free. It’s in Story City. No delivery. It’s going to the first person who will come and get it.
They can contact me with questions or to arrange pick up.

I teach piano lessons in Boone, and I am making some changes this year.
As a result, I have a 1983 oak P22 Yamaha available if you have a student
who is looking for a nice instrument.
I am asking $2700 for it. If you would like a picture, please text me at the
number below, and I will reply with a photo.
Thank you,

We have come to a point in our lives in which we do not need the piano anymore. It has brought me great joy to hear music from the kids. I was wondering if you knew anyone that would be interested in the piano. I have attached a picture. We are looking for little to nothing for it.
