Our homes are filled with beloved belongings and cherished possessions of all different shapes and sizes. Trying to cram these items into cardboard boxes ready to be shipped off to our new homes can be a daunting task, especially when they are awkwardly shaped or abnormally sized.
Fortunately, there are professional removals companies who can handle all of your tricky belongings and make the moving process run as smoothly as possible.
These are the top five trickiest items to move and why it’s important to invest in a good quality removal company to ensure that they arrive at your destination in perfect condition.
1. Fine Art
Fine art usually possesses either monetary or sentimental value and must be handled carefully.
Artwork may be easy to carry but must be packaged correctly to ensure nothing gets broken or damaged in the move.
It is beneficial to invest in a specialist mover company to ensure that your fine art is being handled correctly using all the best packaging equipment available.
2. Piano
Pianos add a great deal of character and aesthetic value to any home. However, when it comes to moving them, they can be a pain.
Pianos don’t have great hand holds for movers to grasp, which makes keeping a strong hold on a piano tough.
They are also very fragile, so it is important that they are handled correctly to prevent any damages from occurring.
At Essex Removals, we have been handling piano removals for Essex residents for decades and are experienced in dealing with tricky items.
3. Pets
A pet’s home is often their safe haven. This is why it can be scary for pets when they are moved out of their home and into a new one. There are several measures that you can take to ensure that your pets are safe and comfortable during the move.
Try to keep your pets routine the same during the moving process to maintain a sense of familiarity in their life. You can also try introducing your pets to the new area that they will be living in before the move.
4. TV
A large number of UK households have at least one television in their home, with some having televisions in multiple rooms in the house.
However, TV’s are actually very tricky to move because of their size and weight.
You can help to protect your TV during the move by wrapping it in sheets or blankets to prevent it from getting damaged.
5. Mattress
Surprisingly, mattresses can be one of the hardest items to move since they cannot be divided up into smaller pieces like other furniture.
You must have at least two people in order to successfully move a mattress and if you run out of moving boxes, you must find another way to safely transport your mattress.
