When you're getting ready to move large furniture a long way, measuring each piece carefully is crucial. It helps Dose Moving & Storage identify potential issues before the move and ensures a smooth transition.

Taking apart furniture reduces the risk of damage during transit and liability. To add an extra layer of protection, cover corners with foam to absorb shocks and impacts, and wrap your furniture in high-quality blankets to shield against scratches and scuffs.

 

Measuring Furniture Saves Time

When you're preparing large furniture for a long-distance move with Dose Moving & Storage, it's crucial to measure each piece accurately. This step saves you time and helps you avoid costly mistakes during the relocation process.

By measuring your furniture, you'll ensure a smooth shift by identifying potential issues beforehand. You'll be able to plan the layout of your furniture and rooms more effectively, visualizing the space and making necessary adjustments.

Taking precise measurements helps you determine the best placement for each piece, minimizing the risk of damage or difficulty during transit. You'll also identify any potential obstacles, such as narrow doorways or tight stairwells, and plan accordingly.

 

Furniture Disassembly Reduces Liability

Accurate measurements of large furniture pieces set the stage for the next critical step in preparing for a long-distance move with Dose Moving & Storage: disassembling furniture to reduce liability.

When you disassemble large furniture, you're reducing the risk of damage during transit, which in turn lessens the liability for both you and Dose Moving & Storage.

This is especially crucial when considering furniture insurance, as most policies have specific guidelines for preparing items for transport. By disassembling furniture, you can avoid signing liability waivers that can leave you vulnerable to losses in case of damage.

Proper disassembly guarantees a smoother moving process and provides an added layer of protection for your valuable possessions.

 

Protecting Corners With Foam

When it comes to moving large furniture, five critical areas are especially prone to damage. That's where Dose Moving & Storage's foam corner covers come in. Our foam corner covers provide a layer of cushioning that absorbs shocks and impacts, so your furniture stays safe.

If you're looking for an alternative, our corner guards made of sturdy plastic or metal offer additional support and protection. When choosing the right fit, make sure to consider the size and shape of your furniture corners. That way, you can ensure a snug fit.
