How do you deal with a sofa move?

When planning a move, one of the most frequently asked questions is “How to move a sofa?”. Before you place a request for transportation, we advise you to read our article.

Delivery of the sofa can be done in two ways.

The sofa is completely disassembled before loading

This transportation option requires careful preliminary preparation. First of all, you need to understand whether it is even possible to disassemble the sofa in order to move it. To do this, read the instructions, if any. As a rule, a standard sofa is disassembled.

Be sure to pack every item. Pay special attention to small details. We advise you to put them all in separate bags and label them. Otherwise, during the subsequent assembly of the sofa, it can cause many

difficulties.

The sofa is delivered unassembled

This option of transporting the sofa will require a lot of effort in terms of physical activity. It is worth immediately finding out whether this piece of furniture will fit in a freight elevator or whether it will have to be lowered down flights of stairs. Corner sofas can be quite difficult to descend / ascent.

The option of descending by elevator or manually by stairs will significantly affect the cost of transportation. As a rule, if the elevator is not used, each floor is paid extra.

To secure the sofa during transportation, it should be securely fastened in the car with cables or tightly supported by boxes with other things. If there is a folding mechanism, it must be fixed so that the folding bed does not work during movement.
