How to Move Furniture Safely: Expert Guide
Moving furniture safely requires proper technique, equipment, and planning. Our professional movers share their expert tips for moving furniture without damage to your belongings or injury to yourself.
Safety first: Lift with your legs, not your back. Keep loads close to your body. Never twist while carrying. Use proper lifting straps for heavy items. Know your limits — if it's too heavy, get help.
Protecting furniture: Wrap in blankets or bubble wrap. Remove legs from tables. Disassemble beds and wardrobes. Use corner protectors. Wrap glass/mirrors in bubble wrap and mark as fragile.
