It’s tempting to tackle your home’s to-do list yourself, but moving large objects can pose a risk of injury if not done properly. While other tasks may go smoothly, lifting heavy items requires extra caution. Before you begin, check out our guide on how to safely carry large objects to avoid accidents and protect yourself.
Get the Right Help and Ensure Your Comfort When Moving Furniture
While it might be tempting to move furniture on your own, it’s rarely the best idea. First, assess your own health to ensure you’re physically capable of handling large pieces. Additionally, seek out assistance from someone you trust to be physically strong enough for the task. If they’re not willing or able to help, don’t pressure them—prioritize safety and avoid taking unnecessary risks.
There are resources available to assist you with the process. To better distribute the weight, you can use forearm straps and under-furniture sliders.
Before lifting and moving furniture, make sure to check the size of doorways and thresholds, count the steps, and plan your route. The last thing you want is to get stuck in a narrow stairway while carrying a heavy piece of furniture and trying to maneuver around a corner. A little preparation can save you from a lot of hassle.
Furniture with sharp corners can easily damage walls during a move. To prevent this, cover the corners with soft material to reduce impact. Also, open drawers and doors can shift weight and cause the furniture to collapse, potentially damaging your walls. Secure them by using furniture-safe tape to keep them closed.
Everyone has heard to lift using their legs instead of their back. Yes, that's correct! But, instead of leaning over, go for a squat to maintain your back straight.
