There are many reasons why folks living in and near Downtown San Diego may find themselves in need of furniture removal services.
Relocating is a common one. When people move from one home to another, it’s not unusual to have certain pieces of furniture that you no longer want and don’t want to pack and move either. It may be that the piece is too far gone to donate, nor could you hope to sell it.
So, getting rid of it is a natural decision. But if it’s large or bulky – or both – then getting someone else in to remove it and then haul it away is a typical option.
But furniture removal is rarely that simple…
The Dilemmas of Moving Your Furniture
If you are moving, furniture removal can be a time-sensitive chore meaning that you need to have it done within a small window of time. If you don’t have a truck, some moving equipment, or some capable help to do it all yourself, that means finding a service to do it for you and just when you need it done.
If you’re a renter, there can be an issue of liability for furniture removal. Damage to walls, corners, ceilings, flooring, and doorways is not unusual when people remove furniture from houses or apartments.
And that doesn’t even take into consideration any potential liability issues for people getting injured while carrying out your furniture removal.
Another seemingly insignificant dilemma is the actual distance for furniture removal tasks. It’s one thing to take a large sofa from a living room, down the hall, and out the front door to a waiting truck.
However, having to haul that same piece from an upstairs den, down to the ground floor of an apartment or condor, out the front door, and then across the property’s complex to the street just to load it – that’s something else altogether!
Of course, we haven’t even addressed the dilemma of simply moving large furniture, never mind loading and hauling it.
Six-piece sectional sofas, for example, can weigh well over 1,000 pounds with each section being close to 250 pounds or more. How do you even begin to move items like that? And a large power recliner can weigh in at 170 pounds or more.
Things You Should Know Before Starting the Furniture Removal Process
When it comes to the furniture removal process, it’s important to keep in mind that removing furniture does not need to be a DIY function.
Even if you feel you are fully capable of handling large, heavy, and bulky pieces of household furniture by yourself – or with the help of an equally capable partner – there really is no need to do so when you have easy access to professional furniture removal services right here in Downtown San Diego.
But, for argument’s sake, let’s assume you still want to do it all yourself. With that in mind, here are some tips for moving heavy furniture:
Plan Your Work
- Map out the path you’ll take with your furniture pieces
- Measure your furniture as well as doorways, stairways, and corners
- Gather your supplies and tools such as blankets, dollies, hand trucks, etc.
Disassemble Pieces
- Many large items, such as dressers, desks, and bookshelves are easier to move if they are taken apart
- Remove any drawers from dressers to lighten the load
Cover and Wrap Pieces
- Wrapping your large furniture in a moving blanket or shrink wrap held in place with packing tape to ensure it won’t move or slip as you lift can make handling far easier
Use Furniture Sliders
- Some heavy furniture can be slid along wood or other smooth, uncarpeted floors with the use of furniture sliders
- In addition, specialized sliders can be utilized for moving heavy pieces across carpets
Up or Down Stairs
- Cover handrails and corners with blankets or padding to prevent damaging them or your furniture
- Use a hand truck or furniture dolly and a partner
Sometimes, however, you may still find that some pieces are just not going to be safe for you to manage on your own. And that’s when you will want to call on the services of a reliable and local furniture removal service.
