Understanding the challenges of moving large items

Some heavy and bulky items call for specialist handling and equipment. Moving large household items like fridges, spa baths, and gym equipment can be a recipe for disaster without the assistance of trained removalists.

If you cannot easily lift something, hiring moving professionals to assist can really be a lifesaver.

There are a wide range of potential risks that can emerge when attempting to move large items without the correct equipment or expertise.

Improper handling practices or attempts to move objects beyond your physical capabilities can result in injuries such as sprains and strains.

Damage to the property and the item itself can also occur if heavy objects are incorrectly manoeuvred or inadequately secured.

The transportation of such items can also pose a wide range of logistical challenges, which removalist professionals can help to minimise, including:

• Vehicle weight distribution
• Navigating doorways and stairs
• Space constraints
• Damage to objects and walls, and
• The need for specialist equipment

Equipment and processes that help our team take care of your bulky items during the move

Our professional removalists have an extensive toolkit of quality materials, equipment and expert techniques to safely handle larger items.

Using correct lifting techniques is crucial to ensuring the prevention of injury, minimising risks to property damage, and boosting efficiency when moving large items.

Here are just some of the ways we tackle your oversized furniture and belongings to prevent damage:

• Lifting straps and harnesses help to spread the weight out and make it easier to move heavy, awkward items without straining yourself. Plus, with our special platforms, we can shift big stuff around without scratching up any furniture or damaging the surroundings.
• Furniture sliders are small pieces of rubber or plastic positioned on the bottoms of furniture legs. This can enable us to slide large items rather than lift them.
• Heavy-duty moving blankets aid in preventing scratches to your belongings and they also help to reduce shifting within the moving truck.
• Hoisting large items with cranes or hoisting equipment helps our removalists easily navigate tricky spots like narrow staircases or hallways.
• Disassembling and reassembling heavy, bulky items, such as bed frames, which makes them easier to move around.
• Using quality moving and packing materials to protect both the items being moved and the surrounding environment, including padding and wrapping to minimise scratches and dents and protective floor coverings to reduce scuffing.

We’re committed to finding solutions for all your difficult-to-move items. Discover more about how we can help make your move a breeze here.

Ensuring the safety and care of movers and clients

Employing safety protocols and precautions are critical when handling large items.

Prior to the removal of large items, our trained movers conduct a risk assessment to identify and mitigate potential safety hazards.

Safe handling practices are key to ensuring the safety of anyone moving heavy furniture or boxes, including bending at the knees helps to reduce the risk of injury. Our professional removalists are trained to use the safest and most efficient handling methods to move your belongings.

The use of appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is key, including gloves and sturdy footwear, depending on the situation is also important for safety when moving large items.

We strive to ensure that our team are always fit, well cared for, and up for the job at hand. This is why we have partnered with a local Chiropractor, Life Rebel Chiropractic, to ensure the team are regularly assessed, helping to prevent work injuries and ensuring our customers receive the best possible service.
