Should I Pay Movers to Rearrange my Furniture?

One of the services we offer is rearranging furniture which isn't in conjunction with a move of any kind. This is a service we provide to those who are already living in a home with furniture, but someone has decided they'd like the piano downstairs and great-grandmother's antique armoire upstairs. When it comes time to move the furniture around in your home or office, sometimes hiring movers is the wisest course of action due to safety, suitability, and the perfect end look. Here is why:

Protect yourself and your family or employees

Moving furniture is not only excruciatingly heavy work, but there can also be some mass involved. Some people mistakenly believe that if a person is big or strong enough, he will be capable of moving big items. Not so, according to medical statistics. Movers are not only in great shape, but they also understand the physics involved in moving, so they can move large items without getting hurt. Paying for movers isn't free, but it doesn't include paying for lost work time or twelve weeks of physical therapy.

Protecting furniture

Hiring people who are strong enough also won't protect the furniture. To move items swiftly, carefully, and successfully, that muscle needs some care behind it. For example, hiring skilled movers is essential to move belongings in a building or home with stairs, particularly stairs with tight corners. This is also true for narrow hallways. If the furniture is bulky and heavy it's easy to justify hitting a wall or knocking off a finial. But furniture movers are trained to wrap, lift, and move the furniture, so it arrives at its destination safely. 

Arrangement options

No matter how many times a person fiddles with an online room planning tool or little squares of graph paper, nothing can prepare a homeowner for reality. It might be that the bookcase covers part of a window or that the door won't close all the way if the sofa is a bit wider than previously calculated.

Hiring movers means the process of arranging, rearranging, and then arranging it back to the original position a few times isn't going to be a problem. "Yes, ma'am!" is a better response to your fourth request than, "Aw, Mom! We did that already. I have other things to do!" When you're arranging your home, having movers who will work with you and move things back and forth until you get the precise look you want to achieve is an investment in your future happiness.

Speed

Another reason to hire movers is if there are many things to be moved or if special equipment is necessary to protect individual belongings. Anything from painting to piloting is always faster with people who have expertise in their field. Experienced movers are fast because they've seen it all, moved it all, and then, in all likelihood, moved it back again. Your time is valuable. 

Should you pay movers to rearrange your furniture? Only if you want experts who know the moving business and will make a rearrangement project move swiftly, safely, and precisely the way you want it.
