Moving & Removals Advice

How to Prepare Furniture for Moving

Furniture is often the bulkiest and most vulnerable part of any move. A little preparation goes a long way towards keeping it damage-free.

Empty Drawers And Shelves

Remove contents from wardrobes, chests of drawers and shelving units before moving day. It makes items lighter and safer to carry, and reduces the risk of damage inside.

Dismantle Where Sensible

Bed frames, large wardrobes and flat-pack furniture often move more safely, and take up less space, when partially dismantled. Keep screws and fittings together in a labelled bag.

Protect Vulnerable Surfaces

Wrap corners, glass surfaces and polished wood to prevent scuffs and scratches during transit.

Plan Awkward Or Heavy Pieces

Items such as pianos, snooker tables or oversized sofas need particular care and sometimes specialist equipment. Flag these to your removals team in advance so the right approach and manpower can be planned.
