Moving Furniture from Chandler to Phoenix in Three Easy Steps

It’s moving day. What is your stress level? Through the roof or are you cool and calm? That depends on the level of effort you put into planning and preparing for your move. It is a known fact in the moving industry that the more planning that is done prior to the date of the move; the easier it is for you and everyone else on moving day. When you are moving furniture from Chandler to Phoenix then you should follow our tips from the pros.

1. Get the right materials

Not everyone can afford to pay for professional packing by a moving company, but there are ways to get a similar result on your own. If you are moving furniture from Chandler to Phoenix, it may not seem like a long distance, but a lot can happen to furniture in the truck and during the moving process.Here are some items you will need to wrap and pack everything the best way:

  • Packing tape

  • Packing paper

  • Different colored markers/Sharpies

  • Scissors or a blade

  • Styrofoam and bubble wrap

  • Stretch or shrink wrap for cloth items like ottomans or sofas

  • Many sizes of cardboard boxes from small to large

2. Pack well

Using the equipment you purchased, you should be able to make moving furniture from Chandler to Phoenix super easy. Many people do not think to wrap sofas, mattresses, pillows and more in shrink wrap, but believe me, it’s essential. I once knew a friend who used a toy hauler to move furniture, which is essentially a huge trailer that holds ATVs and is towed behind a truck. They packed everything in boxes but didn’t wrap the mattress. As they unloaded and dragged that mattress down the ramp, they realized they were picking up a huge amount of grease on the mattress. Don’t make that mistake yourself and wrap EVERYTHING. Your furniture, floors and walls will thank you.

3. Tips for moving

When you are moving furniture from Chandler to Phoenix, your stuff won’t travel more than 20-40 miles, but it can seem like a lot farther if you get there and stuff is ruined. Make sure you mark ‘Fragile’ or ‘This Side Up’ on boxes to help guide the movers so they can take care of your belongings. Also make sure the most delicate items are placed on top of the load, not the bottom.Following these tips when you are moving furniture from Chandler to Phoenix will make your move smooth and keep your belongings in pristine condition.
