Best Ways To Move A Single Item

To move a single item, you need to start by figuring out what that item requires. For certain items such as pianos, pool tables, or recliners, you’ll need to follow a step-by-step process to prepare for the move. Then hire a quality moving company to move the items.

If you’re thinking about moving an item by itself, the odds are you probably should. Moving a single item will help you make sure it arrives at your home safe and sound. As long as you follow our guide, you’ll be able to have a seamless move for your item.

All of the following items are wise to move by themselves. They won’t fit in a moving truck and will damage other items if moved with them.

• Pool Tables: Pool tables are huge and heavy. They require a whole moving process by themselves and hire a pool table moving service. 

• Pianos: These are important to move alone because they’re super fragile. They will also damage your other items due to the odd shape and weight if bunched together in a moving truck.

• Recliners: Like pool tables, these require a dissembling process that will require you to use tools to take apart the chair. Then, you’ll also have to hire a specific moving company to help you move it.

These items are only scratching the surface of items you should move by themselves. A few other ones are large furniture objects, large-scale machinery, and fragile art pieces.

Hiring a moving company for your item is a great choice. Depending on what your item is, your moving company can make all the difference in the world for a smooth move. Pianos, pool tables, and recliners all have specific moving service companies that specialize in moving them.

Hiring one of these teams will put an expert team at your door of people who know exactly how to safely move your item.

Hiring a moving company will help benefit your move because they can:

• Build custom crates and packaging for specific items. 
• Help you with the disassembly and reassembly of your item.
• Move specific items out the window if easier.

Your mover can help in more ways than you’d imagine. They will know what the best way to safely move your item is so that it remains undamaged throughout the process.

Since moving a single item is a much bigger deal to most people, these specialty moving companies will likely have a lot of reviews based on their service. You can read stories of other people who worked with them and see how their move was.

Look for a moving company that has a lot of reviews about how they handled the object with care and how the entire process went smoothly.

If you’re thinking about trying to move your item yourself, consider this. Your item is most likely a large, fragile item. If you try and do this yourself, you’re risking damaging it simply because you have zero experience with moving it.

On the other hand, a professional moving company moves these objects on a daily basis and you’re going to get the peace of mind knowing your item won’t be damaged.

If your item breaks down into smaller pieces, break it down into as many as you can. Take each of these pieces and wrap them up with bubble wrap and other protective materials. You can help your moving company by doing this and save more time on your move. 

Communication is key with your moving company. Some moving companies may tell you to wait to prepare the item until they’re present. It’s always smart to offer as much help as you can to your moving company as they’re professionals at moving the object, not taking it apart.

Your moving company will help you unload your item, but you’ll need to guide them on where you want your item. If it’s big and heavy, plan this out as far in advance as possible. Avoid moving other smaller items in that could make it harder to move the item through your new house.

We hope your move goes as smoothly and easily as possible. As long as you follow our guide, your item will be safe and sound during the transportation process. Happy Moving!
