5 Expert Furniture Removal Tips

People sometimes have a piece of furniture that is an awkward size – this can become a problem when moving! For example a sofa may not fit the doorway. Or an ancient ceramic jar may be too large and too fragile to relocate in a typical moving van.

The below five main tips will put you well on your way to dealing with those large and difficult to handle possesions of yours.

1. Measure the sofa dimensions against the dimensions of the door. You will have a bit of a challenge with your furniture removal if the sofa is bigger than the door. Measure the height, length, and width of the sofa or other furniture to have a better estimate of the space it needs to get in.

2. Try dismantling the door. Sometimes, moving furniture requires removing the door. Proper care must be given the door when it is to be rehinged.

3. Try dismantling the furniture. You may want to remove the legs of the sofa so that it can easily fit in. You may also try to remove the cushions so they don’t fall or sustain damage or add weight during the move. Try to make the furniture as bare as possible and then re-set it up once the frame is in the house.

4. Despite all these approaches if the furniture still does not seem to fit, another thing to do is to move the furniture with the bottom side up and the back side out. Then, move at an angle with the door. Small movements will be necessary to make sure you don’t get stuck between the furniture and the door, or your feet and toes or fingers and hands hurt in the process. Moving the furniture this way may also protect it from scratches or dent.

5. Finally, let furniture removal experts do it for you! This is the best thing to do to remove the hard work from you and to avoid risking damage to your furniture.
