One of the most difficult pieces of furniture to move around is your sofa. They are awkwardly shaped, large, heavy, and sometimes hard to get a grip on. There are right ways and wrong ways to move a sofa, especially through doorways. You don't want to play like Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman crashing through the apartment door and knocking over vases full of blue liquid on white carpet in the movie While You Were Sleeping. Learn from their mistake and don't go for brute force when your sofa is wedged in the door.
Sorting Through Your Items
When you find out that you're going to move, you need to start sorting through all your possessions. If you're hiring a mover, you need to have the smallest possible version of your things. Dig deep into places that you haven't looked in for a while. You wouldn't want all your boxes to have a large amount of garbage in them. We all have problems wanting to get rid of anything that we own. Excess stuff is nothing to worry about when you're moving yourself, but when you throw all the other variables into the mix, you have a recipe for trouble. It's essential that you try to get rid of as much as possible before the movers arrive. In the interest of reducing the cost of your move, you can't be too choosy.
Another thing Sandra and Bill did right was working in pairs. It's best not to try to move heavy or awkward furniture on your own. Sofas especially are best moved with two people. If you are just sliding the couch to the other side of the room, you can probably manage that on your own. (Just slip a piece of flat cardboard or a towel/rag underneath the couch and slide away!) But going through doors, upstairs, into elevators, or up and down off trucks, requires at least two pairs of hands.
Naturally, people might assume that the moving service that charges the most is also the best. On the contrary, price has little to do with the quality of a moving service. As with any other part of society, factors that are out of your control are usually responsible for determining price. You have to dig a little bit deeper to see what other people are saying about the moving services you're considering. Customer reviews are a lifesaver in this situation. They prevent you from having to deal with a moving company that might not have the most. You are already plunking down a lot of cash to move into your new place. The last thing you would want to do is have your budget destroyed with high moving costs.
After you choose a mover you want to make sure that you take the time that you need to understand how you are going to sign a contract. When you sign a contract you want to be sure that both parties sign the contract. Look through the contract after you receive it to make sure you agree with everything within the contract. Take the time that you need to understand how you are going to be smart about making any changes with the contract before you sign it.
If all else fails, you can call upon the best movers in Utah to come, dismantle your piece, and rebuild it in the proper place. It could be costly, but if you're in love with your sofa, it should be worth it. Think of all the great times you and your sofa will have in your new place! So soft and comfortable, you'll be glad you have it with you!
