Movers wrapping a chair

Moving can be an exciting time in one's life. That is if your furniture makes it to its destination safely. Picture this, you open up the rented moving truck and your lamp or favorite picture is shattered. This doesn't have to be your reality, there are ways to make sure your move goes as planned. For a seamless relocation without the fuss of damaged furniture, depend on these tips:

  • Hire a Professional Moving Company
  • Invest in Secure Storage
  • Purchase Excess Packing Materials
  • Disassemble Furniture Properly

Depend on a Moving Company in The Bay Area

You don't have to go it alone. Let a reliable residential moving and storage company do the heavy lifting. Make sure you researched companies and compare the benefits they offer. After all, they're working for you and you should be their priority. Choose a company with the following advantages:

  • Accredited by The Better Business Bureau
  • Flexible Moving Plans
  • Full-Service Plans Available
  • Uniformed, Screened, Licensed, and Insured Movers
  • Customer Service-Focused Practices

Storage Solutions for Your Delicate Furniture

Damage from moving can be mitigated if you store your more precious furniture and belongings during the relocation. Once you're settled in at your new home, you can safely retrieve your belongings without any rush. It's especially convenient to hire a moving and storage company that does both.

Package Furniture Safely

It doesn't hurt to have more packing materials than you'll use. This way you're able to securely package furniture that may be prone to damage. Securely wrap any glass or delicate items excessively to ensure a seamless move. Better yet, hire a professional moving company that packages your items for you.

Take the Time to Disassemble Furniture

Although it can be tempting to shove a table into the back of your truck and call it a day, there is a big risk of damage. Make sure to take the time to disassemble all large furniture so it doesn't get scratched or dented from the drive. An expert moving company will be able to disassemble your furniture and re-assemble at your new location.
