Moving Heavy Items: Safety Tips

Get Appropriate Assistance And Ensure You're Comfortable Moving Furniture

Even if you want to, moving things around on your own is rarely a smart idea. Check your health to check if you're in a position to move massive pieces of furniture. Examine your health. Also, because you'll need help, look for physically capable, in your opinion. Don't force them to accept if they refuse to take the risk.

Stock Up On The Right Equipment And Supplies

There are resources available to assist you with the process. To better distribute the weight, you can use forearm straps and under-furniture sliders.

To Begin, Create A Strategy

Before you start lifting and moving, make sure you check the size of your thresholds, count your steps, and have a game plan. The last thing you need is to become stranded in a stairway while supporting a large piece of furniture and attempting to pivot around a corner.

Tape Drawers And Corners To Prevent Them From Falling Out

Furniture with protruding corners is a recipe for disaster when it comes to damaged walls. Reduce the impact by covering them with a softer material. Open furniture drawers and doors can damage walls by redistributing the weight and causing them to collapse. Use furniture-safe tape to tape them close.

The Proper Method Of Lifting

Everyone has heard to lift using their legs instead of their back. Yes, that's correct! But, instead of leaning over, go for a squat to maintain your back straight.
