I like screws in the bottom too. I pre-drill whatever screw 
holes I need in the dolly, then get them under the piano and 
screwed to the back just like this. Then the piano goes up on 
it's end (bottom corner) with a padded block catching it just 
past the balance point, so I can put the screws in the bottom. 
Being close to the balance point, I can pull it back to me, 
catch it as it comes down, and set it back down on the floor 
on it's new dolly. You couldn't pay me to try this with a 
tilter and six helpers, but I can do the job by myself this way.
