Items that are challenging for movers to move

challenging-items-to-move

When you’re preparing for your move, it’s important to figure out how to pack and move your furniture safely into your new home. Of course, moving professionals like Armando Movers can help, but it is beneficial to know which items will be challenging to move.

Whether it’s a short or long-distance move, there are going to be some items you need to move that will be difficult.

Here are some of the most difficult items to move and tips for moving them correctly:

  1. Oddly shaped items
  2. As you all know, items that can fit nicely into a box or large case are easier to move than those that are oddly shaped. Items like BBQ’s or patio furniture can be difficult to move. It’s important to have the proper equipment to move these items safely.

  3. Artwork
  4. Any piece of artwork holds value and can be very fragile. Whether it’s glass, framed, or a sculpture, these items can be difficult to move. You have to handle these items with care because they can easily be damaged.

    When you’re packing any artwork, you should put them in a box larger than the piece. This will prevent it from being crushed. If it is a smaller piece of art, you should bubble wrap them so they won’t get damaged in the box.

  5. Plants
  6. Plants are very difficult to move because they are living organisms. A move can be traumatic for them if they are not moved properly. The best tip for moving plants is replanting them into a plastic planter before your move. This way if they fall during the move, the planter will not break.

  7. Pianos
  8. Despite all the items listed above, pianos can be one of the most difficult items to move. They have small, fragile parts inside, but are also large, bulky and heavy. Because pianos are delicate you want to be extra careful when moving them so they don’t get damaged. When moving your piano make sure your moving professionals have the right equipment and are experienced in moving large items.
