Move a fridge to your new home with ease
We all know that packing your kitchen for the move may be the single hardest task on your moving checklist. Sometimes it can be so overwhelming and tedious that you end up asking professional packers for assistance. And that’s perfectly okay! Not everyone has the time to properly pack for their relocation. But, there are a few things you should do before they arrive when you’re moving your refrigerator.
First things first, make sure the fridge is completely empty. That includes taking out all the food. Moreover, most Clearwater moving companies will not transport perishables, and can only take in unopened canned goods. If you have any food you don’t want to bring with you, you can always donate it or try to use it up before your moving day rolls around. Then, you want to make sure you take out the shelves and drawers. Once that is finished, completely defrost the fridge and give it a thorough clean. Your future self will thank you!
Pay attention to how you wrap the fridge for the relocation
Let’s be honest, fridges aren’t cheap and damaging one would definitely cut into your moving budget. That is why you want to make sure it is properly wrapped and secured before movers load it onto the moving truck. No matter if you’re moving across town or you’re moving long-distance, it needs to be completely secure during transport. You need to carefully coil the cords and lines and secure them to the side of the fridge with strong tape. After that, you want to make sure the doors are sealed shut, and for this, you will need to use packing tape.
To further ensure the fridge doesn’t get any damages, your movers will recommend that you use moving blankets. Wrap your fridge in moving blankets and secure them with straps or bungees. Use a moving dolly to safely load it onto the truck and if possible, leave it on there for the duration of the trip. This way, you will rest assured knowing that the fridge will arrive at your new home in one piece!
Why Choose Us?
These guys moved me last year. They went above and beyond, beat the prices of any other business in their class, and were an absolute pleasure to deal with. They were FAST. The disassembled and reassembled, and handled special requests. I am about to hit them up again for extra help putting together and moving new furniture. They have a great story to their start-up– saw a gap in the moving business and filled that gap by creating a business with customer care first, under their own close watch. Thanks, guys. I got the worst impressions from the others I called comparatively when I was moving and went with my gut on this. Glad I did.
