How to Move Heavy Furniture

Edited byImperatrix and 23 others

Packing for a move is never easy. It involves looking into every room, tossing away things saved but never used. Next is a trip to the supermarkets gathering up various sizes of boxes for packing. Once the small things are taken care of, the big stuff has been finished we turn to the heavy stuff. Rolling up a room size carpet means moving some very heavy furniture. It might take more than one person to do this job, especially if the furniture is old, and made of real wood. This can be a back breaking job, unless you learn how to move it easily.
