If you are planning for an interstate relocation 
in the near future, you must have a fear in 
your mind regarding the safe movement of 
heavy items. When it comes to moving heavy 
items, the goal is to be as efficient as 
possible. Heavy items include a refrigerator, 
furniture, pool table, piano, washing machine, 
and dishwasher. All these items are expensive 
and valuable, so any damage to these bulky 
items may lead to a huge loss for you. So to 
avoid this damage while relocating, you need 
to be aware of some techniques.

Plan The Move According To The 
Measurement Of Heavy Items
Planning is always the preferable option because it 
makes things go more smoothly. Prepare a suitable plan 
before starting your move. Under this, make a list and 
note down all the important points regarding the heavy 
items. For example, will the couch fit through the door 
or the window?
Measure all the items. This will determine if they can be 
easily relocated from the door or window based on the 
measurements. Then decide the strategy to move from 
one place to another, keeping in mind all possible 
obstacles or difficulties along the way. Preparing this will 
help you protect your belongings, home, and yourself!
Remove All Items 
That Are 
Attached
To make easy movement of bulky items, you must 
remove all the attached parts. Like, don’t move 
the desk with its drawers attached to it. Also, 
don’t forget to remove the content laying inside 
the drawers. All drawers and shelves should be 
empty, and then detach them from the desk if 
possible. If you can’t remove them, tape them to 
shut, so they don’t open while they move. You 
should also detach the wings of the wall fan for 
carrying easily.
Use Tools To Protect From Damage
• Furniture Sliders – There is no need to push or pull heavy furniture; 
instead, use furniture sliders. That will make your work easy and 
damage-free. Furniture sliders, in their various forms, reduce friction 
between the heavy item and the floor, allowing for a faster and 
easier movement.
• Dollies And Carts – There are several different types of wheeled 
moving tools that you can rent for the duration of your relocation. 
Dollies and carts are four-wheeled square tools that are very useful 
in moving heavy items safely to distribute even weight. Carts have a 
handle to push or pull heavy items easily. However, before wheeling 
anything away, make sure you secure your belongings, so they don’t 
shift or fall off while you’re moving.
• Stairs Rollers – Stair rollers attach to heavy objects so they can be 
easily rolled down steps. For the proper guidance of furniture down 
the stairs you can use this equipment. This tool works best when 
used by multiple people.
Push Instead Of Pull
Pushing heavy furniture where it needs to go 
is far easier on your body than pulling it, so 
don’t be scared to push it instead of lifting it. 
Pulling also puts additional pressure on your 
back, but pushing does not. However, unless 
you want to deal with refinishing the floor or 
repairing shredded carpeting, place 
cardboard, an old mat, or a sheet under the 
furniture and pull it across the floor with that. 
Putting a carpet or other covering under the 
object will protect the floor from scratches 
while also making pushing simpler.
Hire Professional Removalists 
Moving heavy items is not an easy task to 
conduct on your own, so you must hire a 
professional removalist to do this job. 
Removalists have all the essential equipment 
required for the safe move of your expensive 
and valuable items. Before hiring a removalist 
make sure that they will provide you with an 
insurance claim if any items have been 
damaged during the move. Hiring removalists 
is very beneficial according to moving yourself 
as removalists are skilled and experienced, so 
the chance of damage is minimised.
