I frequently see free pianos on craisgslisttampa. Presumably, some of them get picked up.

Regarding why you have had no luck getting someone in The Villages to accept the piano, it is likely that space in the home is an issue, as well as the fact that few people sit around and play the piano when there is so much to watch on TV, and so many activities to get involved in throughout the retirement community.
The piano is in our Ohio house. Craigslist has several listings of free pianos in our area. As we have ten more days to move things out of our sold Ohio house, the piano has ten more days to live. Thanks for all of the advice!
