By updating its resource library, Movers.com continues to offer topical assistance for families in the midst of relocation planning. Its guides specialize in sharing recommendations and advice that make moving easier by addressing common concerns, with its latest focusing specifically on getting heavy objects in and out of homes.
High-rise buildings without working elevators can be particularly problematic when moving, suggests the guide - in large part because it necessitates the usage of stairs. When furniture, appliances, or other unwieldy belongings are being moved, then, Movers.com stresses that extra caution is essential.
“Move slowly and carefully,” advises the guide. “Stairs pose extra difficulty and possible danger compared to moving heavy items on a level surface. The best way to stay safe when carrying anything on a staircase is to move very slowly and cautiously. Ascend or descend one step at a time, making sure to have both feet firmly planted on a stair before moving to the next one.”
Referencing the challenges associated with stairwell navigation, the Movers.com guide points to the importance of spatial awareness. It recommends that knowledge of the exact dimensions between railings, walls, and ceilings can help when deciding how to move items such as sofas or bulky refrigerators.
The guide also notes the array of modern supplies that are accessible nowadays, including moving straps and hand trucks. Such equipment can make it easier to lift and carry heavy objects - which can protect the items as well as those who are moving them.
Crucially, the guide warns against trying to get larger objects up or down staircases without assistance. Cooperation is vital for coordinating efforts and ensuring safer techniques.
As written in the guide: “You should never attempt to move heavy or bulky items on your own -- especially on a staircase. Maneuvering a cumbersome piece of furniture or heavy appliance is more difficult on the stairs and can obstruct your view. Get a few strong helpers, one to help you balance the weight of the item and another to direct your footing and offer instruction from the floor.”
Movers.com emphasizes that professional help represents the most effective means of moving heavy items and furniture into apartments with narrow access points and no elevators. To help New Haven families find moving companies near them, its website offers a directory of pre-screened teams with observable credentials, reviews, and contact info.
