Packing & Moving A Sofa: Expert Guide For Allentown No-Elevator Apartment Owners
Everyone loves their sofa (or sofas!) - and everyone hates moving them, too. Movers.com makes this chore a lot less easier (if not more fun) with practical resources on how to pack & move this valuable piece of your old home.
(firmenpresse) - Moving House? Careful With That Sofa...Sofa damage is probably more common than you think.
Figures from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration show that item damage during move amounts to an average of over $10,000 per claim, so making sure valuable items are adequately protected should be a priority if you're looking to relocate - especially if you're moving long distance... and even more so if you don't have an elevator.
Juggling a sofa down endless flights of stairs - ah, the prototypal move time nightmare for so many!
The full guide from Movers.com give you a better chance of keeping your beautiful sofa intact (or at least minimizing damage - we're not kidding anyone, the WILL be some slamming stuff into stuff!)
Different Packing Techniques For Different Types Of SofasThe guide breaks down sofa packing based on sofa type - from standard fabric sofas to sofa beds and leather sofas.
For most sofas, using a mix of blankets, microfoam and shrink wrap will ensure adequate protection, assuming all exposed finished wood is covered, and that shrink wrap doesn’t directly touch the surface of the sofa.
Shrink Wrapping Leather Sofas: Don'tHandling shrink wrap becomes even more important when packing leather sofas, explains Movers.com.
“Never wrap a leather sofa with stretch wrap directly,” recommends the report. “The plastic creates condensation which can cause mildew to form and damage your sofa. That would also result in some expensive repairs. Additionally, if your sofa is exposed to extreme heat, the shrink wrap could melt and stick to the leather.”
Storing A SofaYou'll also find expert tips on storing a sofa. This includes:
having the sofa cleaned before storing it, using climate-controlled units to minimize potential damage due to extreme heat or dryness, and covering the floor of the storage unit.
Moving The SofaFinally, the guide includes a step-by-step section on how to move a sofa, from planning the route to loading the sofa into the truck.
