[pianotech] Upright Dolly Recommendation

Both dollies work well and don't elevate the piano significantly.  The main point is why they want the dolly.  If it is to move the piano to the front of a room and back, the small one does fine.  If they want to go room to room and go over thresholds and uneven floors they had better get the large wheels one.  The big wheels really are better, but if the moving is minimum......

Subject: [pianotech] Upright Dolly Recommendation

A church client called me today and asked me to order a dolly for  
their Yamaha upright (don't think it's a U-series - maybe like a T-118  
or so). I don't have much experience with these. Anyone have a  
recommendation? I'm thinking something like the #4009 Upright Twin  
Dollies from Pianotek would do the job. Do these hold up? I see they  
have a #4010 heavy duty dolly with bigger wheels - but does that put  
the piano way up in the air? Any input would be appreciated.
