Expert Furniture Moving Tips

Gibraltar Van Lines is a professional moving company with many years of experience providing long distance and local moving services to clients in the tri-state area and elsewhere. When you are stuck with furniture moving by yourself, the best option is to call a qualified moving service to help you with heavy, valuable, cumbersome or fragile items to ensure that your furniture gets the care it requires from experts, but our movers have also compiled some useful tips that can help you move some items by yourself.

• Unload and disassemble – if you are moving something with drawers or cabinets, take the extra items out. This will not only prevent the damage of these items and your furniture, but can make what you are moving lighter.
• Use sliders – a mat or a rug can help you slide a large object across a smooth floor easily and with minimal effort, but if you want to move anything over a rough or uneven surface you should still consult with professional furniture movers in NJ.
• Position yourself with the weight – if the object is unbalanced, like a bookshelf or a bed frame, make sure that you have the majority of the weight on a handtruck or that you are carrying it yourself. Dragging the heaviest part of your furniture behind you is a recipe for broken goods and possibly even personal injury.

When faced with the task of moving furniture in NJ, do not hesitate to call upon the experts. No job is too small or too large for us to assist you with, and our service is convenient and efficient. Contact Gibraltar Van Lines today and ask how we can help you with moving your furniture.
