  1. SMART AND SAFE TIPS FOR MOVING HEAVY ITEMS www.anywayzmoving.com

  2. Page 02 Why Safe Moving Matters Lifting heavy objects without the right technique or tools can lead to painful injuries or cause costly damage to your home. Whether you're moving furniture, appliances, or boxes, understanding how to move safely helps avoid strain, slips, and accidents.

  3. Page 03 • Plan Your Route Before lifting a single item, take time to plan your route. Sometimes the shortest way isn't the easiest. Choose paths with wide doorways, fewer stairs, or fewer obstacles. Clear hallways of clutter, furniture, or boxes that could trip you up. www.anywayzmoving.com

  4. Use the Right Equipment Moving heavy items is much easier and safer with the right gear. Tools like dollies, hand trucks, and moving straps help reduce the strain on your body. Sliders make it easy to glide furniture across floors without scratches. Don’t forget gloves for grip and protection.

  5. Lighten the Load Heavy furniture becomes much easier to move when you remove drawers and loose items. Even a few pounds can make a big difference when maneuvering large pieces through doorways or staircases. If possible, take apart bed frames, tables, or shelves.

  6. Use Proper Lifting Technique Poor lifting posture is one of the main causes of injury during a move. Always keep your back straight and bend at your knees when picking up heavy objects. Hold items close to your body to keep your balance steady.

  7. Protect Your Home and Furniture Use thick moving blankets to protect furniture from scratches, dents, and dust. These blankets also shield door frames, stair rails, and corners from accidental bumps. Wrap each piece tightly and secure it with plastic stretch wrap to hold everything in place without leaving sticky residue.

  8. Wear Proper Footwear Wearing the right shoes can prevent serious foot injuries. Always wear closed-toe, non-slip shoes with good support. Avoid sandals or anything that could fall off or slide on smooth floors. Proper footwear protects you if something falls and helps you stay steady while carrying bulky or awkward items.

  9. Call the Professionals Sometimes, moving heavy or bulky items is best left to the experts. At Anywayz Moving, we specialize in transporting large furniture, upright pianos, and gun safes with care. We do not move grand or baby grand pianos, pool tables, or items that require more than 3 stairs. Our trained Arcadia movers ensure everything is handled with professionalism and safety.
