If you are moving to a new home or redecorating your place it is likely you’ll need furniture transportation. Whether it’s your old furniture on removal or brand new furniture, furniture transportation is always quite problematic. Of course it depends on what kind of furniture needs transportation for example chairs or bedside tables could be transported inside your car, but a wardrobe or a kitchen table could become an issue. When you posses a van, you can transport the load yourself, however if you don’t, you’ll need assistance from a transport provider. In search for a solid solution that will also be affordable, try using a transport marketplace, like Clicktrans.

Preparing furniture for transportation

When you need to move your furniture, there are a couple of steps you ought to follow, while preparing them for shipment. First of all, don’t forget to remove all the contents from the furniture – even if the items inside seem light. Some jolts as well as vibrations are inevitable during transportation and every extra item moving uncontrollably within your furniture may damage it. Besides furniture without any content will be lighter and therefore easier to load.

Disassemble what you can – if your furniture may be dismantled without damage and transported in pieces, it will be the safest way to ship it. A table in parts is also more simple to fit in a van. The main downside of shipping furniture in pieces is that the disassembling can be time-consuming, as unskilfully disassembled furniture can be difficult or even impossible to put back together in your new home. Other than that – it’s good to be very careful when shipping small parts (like pins or screws). It’s safer to ship them separately, e.g. in a Ziploc bag.

There is furniture (especially antiques) that mustn’t be dismantled and must be transported as a whole. How to transport them safely? The possibility that you will find a cardboard suitable to fit an armchair is not high, however there are other ways to secure your cargo for the shipping. While preparing furniture for the time of shipment bubble wrap will be essential. Wrap all the delicate elements as well as every corner in bubble foil to save your cargo from damaging in case some other load crashes into it during transportation. If you don’t have bubble foil, you can try using cardboard to secure the corners.

If your furniture has some especially fragile elements (for example made of glass) you should take extra care while transporting it. If it’s possible, it’s best to transport them separately, wrapped in protective layers of cloth as well as bubble foil (all glass shelves should be transported like that). If it can’t be disassembled, wrap it in extra layers of bubble foil. Don’t forget to mention to the hauler that he will be shipping delicate load.

As was mentioned above, usually you will need help with transporting furniture. While choosing a transport provider it’s smart to find out if he offers assistance with loading as well as unloading. Don’t forget to mention the floor they should be taken from and the floor they must be transported to – as well as if there is an elevator available.
