The Reasons Why You Should Not Move Your Heavy Furniture All By Yourself

Posted on

Relocation is something that people often need to undertake and yet, we are prone to often making the mistake of thinking that we can take care of all our furniture removals all by ourselves. Removal companies are there to do all the heavy lifting for you as they are experts and are highly experienced when it comes down to helping you move everything that you are unable to in their own removal van. It is very tempting and normal to think that you can flat pack some of your furniture to move yourself, however what we often don’t realise is that we may end up breaking, shattering or damaging fragile furniture, something that an expert would never do because they are used to it and it is their job. We have listed together a few strong reasons why you should hire a man with van company to you the time, money and additional energy of trying to do it all by yourself:


•    Removal companies are professionals for a reason. It might sound a little obvious; however, if you needed medical help, it would only be the right thing that you visited a doctor and not a lawyer. So you need to be asking yourself: How this is any different? The fact of the matter is that you have already spent so much when on your relocation, there is no point in being cheap and saving a few hundred pounds simply because you think you can a better job. Removal services are very famous and known for their capacity to help you move all your stuff with agility and speed not to mention they are professional and true to their name. They will never damage, break or lose any of your goods.

•    One of the most important things to remember is that often your car won’t be big enough to carry heavy items such as dining tables, sofas and chairs. You may be able to move the small things in your boot, however when it comes to the heavy hitters, it would be wise to invest in a removals van that can carry everything safely to your new destination! You just want to check that the van is big enough to handle everything as well as that everything can be strapped in safely to ensure all your belongings get there on time and in the condition that they left the original place in.

•    There is a very specific way to actually move furniture. We have the habit of simply trying to pick up or drag something along when we’re not actually sure what to be doing. The professionals know that in order to pick up heavy items, there needs to be a certain position you need to get your body into in order to avoid hurting your back or injuring any other part of your body that may cost you a lot and ill health in the long run!
