My piano is due for tuning, but I'm moving in 2 months, can I skip it?

My piano is due for its yearly tuning, but I'm moving in 2 months. I know that after move, I should tune the piano after it is settled. Can I skip this tuning before the move, and just tune it after the move?  Thanks!

Tune it after you've move. If you tune it before moving, your piano will go out of tune again during the moving process and your piano's tune will try to adapt to the environment, which will make your piano go out of tune.

In conclusion, tune it after you've move. Skip the tuning before the move.
