Earlier in my career education and I moved 16 times in 19 years. Needless to say, I consider myself somewhat of an expert on the topic of moving things. The sound of the tape of packaging from the roll used to give my stomach butterflies, and I've learned – even memorized – what should be included in the "last box in the truck. But more about that later.
Even if you are lucky that professional packers and movers, not much to do in the new place: how to get behind the stack of boxes that you have not unzipped, open the new big screen TV, or moving and comfortable you really need to go to the other wall.
What is the best way to move heavy things for yourself? My solution has always been to push, pull, or slide heavy objects. Thus the ground "carries" the weight instead of the back muscles. For example, here is the best way to extract heavy speakers or a television cardboard box with foam inserts.
First, open the lid of the box by removing staples or tape, then set the box her on a carpeted floor or blanket. Then find a place to pick up the television or the speaker – may have to remove the foam inserts up to find a retention of the fingers. Now sit down and simply pull the item from the box slide out. Push back the table with the feet if necessary – some Boxes are a perfect fit! Once the item is resting on the ground, remove the foam inserts and tilt left to a standing position.
Sofas are another matter. They are big and oh so heavy. The best way to move a sofa is to use a sliding disc on each leg. They look like mountains or a rectangular plastic slip surface on top. Several brands like Magic Sliders ™ or EZ ™ moves are available at hardware stores or online. And while you're in movement, may take the opportunity to place permanent smaller disks to each leg to rearrange the room is easier.
Also I'm dying to try the lever that pushes the couch in the apartment so you can get the disc from sliding under the sofa, without lifting his leg. I saw this online tool a video in the village of Experts. Lift Buddy ™ (just ask for it), the Ergolifter, and Easy lifter (designed for refrigerators, though) are examples. The are online.
Finally, the best way to move large potted plants, heavy boxes, or goods case as comfortable and cabinets, or many other heavy things, is to use Bigslider ™ engine. It is a large sheet of plastic slip with a handle and rope. This tool replaces the old piece of carpet or a used cardboard box. It's thin and flexible, but not so thin that you can not get under you're trying to move. I tilt the subject a little Get It Started, push, pulling, rolling, or walking on the theme of the sheet, then slide.
The best thing is not to lose Bigslider ™ sliding discs as I am progressing. (And it works in Large yard and potted plants in soil or fertilizer bags.) I used to move my new big screen TV from the car to the house, even in the concrete roadway and the threshold. To overcome the threshold, I dropped the handle and pushed the TV back, using the engine as a skid steer utility. Once inside, I reset leaf table and continued to slide.
Now the tip of everyone has been waiting for: the list of 10 things that are "the last box on the truck. You can learn from my many (painful) that moves through the review of the experiences of my personnel moving checklist!
(1), bulbs and TV / stereo clickers
(2) fixed phone, if necessary
(3) tool box and picture hangers, packing tape and duct
(4) water filter pitcher and / or bottled water
(5) Coffee and coffee and / or soft drinks
