DFW Movers

Any self-assembly dressers, nightstands, and other other furniture items with drawers should be completely emptied and removed from the item prior to moving. These furniture items are usually made of particleboard and are rather easy to break. If your dresser appears more durable, all items except clothing should be removed. Excessive clothing should also be removed to ensure the integrity of the drawer.

Large furniture items, appliances, and other household goods that cannot fit in a box should be padded and wrapped by your moving company for transport. As a rule of thumb, anything that can fit in a box should be packed in one to ensure proper protection and loading. However, there are items that may be difficult or tricky to pack. Consult with your moving team beforehand to make sure they have the proper supplies in order to transport any tricky items.

Some items your movers may not take include any hazardous material or waste. Examples include gasoline, propane, fertilizer, oils, pool cleaners, and other chemicals. Your movers may also not be able to take anything liquid or that contains dirt, such as water dispensers or live plants, as they pose an extra liability for other materials in the trailer during transport if they were to spill.

Yes, your moving company should have all tools necessary for disassembly of beds and other furniture items. Items such as your bed frame, tables, mirrors, doors, or couch legs may need to be removed or disassembled in order to move safely. Washer, dryers, and refrigerators may also require basic tools to disconnect and reconnect. Your moving team should have all of these tools on their truck on the day of your move.
