Furniture Moving: Tips to move furniture hassle free

When somebody says that packing and shifting of domestic goods is a complex task to do it yourself, I am sure he was stuck with moving his/her furniture after delivery in his house. Unpacking and re-arranging of household goods and furniture is not less complicated in any ways. When you shift your house with the help of movers and packers’ companies, they can help you in re-arranging your furniture. But if you decided to not avail their unpacking and re-arranging services and rather save some money out of it then you are certainly up for a big challenge.

Here are the simple tips to move furniture smoothly-

Get ready before you begin to move your furniture for re-arranging

When you hire a packer’s movers to shift your house, at time they put smaller items inside the cupboard or in a drawer. But when you are moving it within your house for arranging, you should make it empty. Not only it helps you reduce the weight, it will also help you ensure that nothing is getting damaged in the process. Also see if there is anything that can be disassembled because that way you can move it quite effortlessly. For rest of the pieces there are other techniques that you will learn as you read this post.

While sliding, you can utilize covers or towels to slide it easily

Sliding furniture on bare floor may result in scratch and you may have to apply more force. So instead of sliding it that way, you can use carpets, towels or cardboard etc to reduce the friction between furniture and floors. When you reduce the friction, you can slide it nearly effortlessly.

So what's better Pushing or pulling?

Usually pulling heavy weight furniture is much easier than pushing it. But most of the people do it otherwise instead of pulling they tend to push it. If you have someone who can assist you in moving furniture, then it’s good idea to pull from one side and push it from the other. Hold your furniture in your arm and push from this end while the other end is still on ground and someone can pull it from that end. Moving it all alone could not be that easy, but then that depends on your strength and on the furniture that you are moving.

It’s your turn now

Shifting and moving is challenging but once you get your household goods and furniture delivered, moving it inside your rooms for re-arranging is not going to that difficult if you follow right kind of moving techniques. Force is a good thing, but it should be applied with techniques. I sincerely hope you learned some good techniques about moving furniture.
