Safety for wooden furniture

The best furniture movers will have professional carpenters on board. Fully assembled king size beds, large dining tables or large sectional sofas run a higher risk for warping during transport. These are carefully taken apart, all the screws, dowels and brackets are put into clearly labeled and secure bags, attached directly to the main frame.

Multi-Layered Protective Wrapping

After disassembly, they are wrapped individually in a manner that is appropriate to the material type:

  • Wooden Surfaces: Wooden Surfaces are covered with breathable moving blankets that will not scratch or cause impact dents and will not allow moisture to collect on them.
  • Upholstered Sofas & Mattresses: These items are covered with thick plastic stretch fabric to prevent dust, dirt, and stains during the move.

Cardboard corners for heavy duty protection on the corners, thick bubble wrap to protect from vibration on roads and heavy tape to secure in place.

Safety is paramount when it comes to furniture movers in Abu Dhabi.

Moving within city buildings or in gated suburban communities can be a challenge. Your move will be in compliance with the local building management policies when you work with the specialized movers in Abu Dhabi. To get moving crews working at many top dollar towers, floor protection mats and specific lift bookings on the freight elevator must be planned and put in place first.

In addition, a professional moving company in Abu Dhabi has modern closed moving trucks with tie down straps in the truck. When it comes to securing things up inside the truck and stopping them from shifting during sudden stops, it’s all about getting them vertical and in place against the inside walls of the truck, so that everything arrives at your new destination just as it left.

Some tips to get ready for the movers arrival.

Although an elite furniture moving company will take care of all the heavy lifting and packing, prepare a few things before moving day to make it quicker:

Clear off wardrobes, clear off desks, clear off bookshelves of all clothes, files and books. Furniture that is packed with objects inside is transported in a manner that puts a tremendous amount of strain on the joints, and can result in the frame being warped or broken.

Secure All Loose Doors and Drawers: In the case of a small-sized cabinet, which does not need complete disassembly, apply high quality painter’s tape or stretch wrap to secure drawers and cabinet doors, preventing them from opening during the move.

Avoid abrasive particles from getting beneath the stretch film, causing minor scratches in transit, before wrapping clean your furniture.

When you hire a furniture moving company that is dedicated to their task, you are not at risk of any personal injury, your belongings won’t get damaged to the point of needing repair, and your home will be set up quickly and efficiently.
