3 Moving Supplies That Can Make Moving So Much Easier For You

When it comes to moving, most people will look for or do anything and everything that they can to make the moving process easier. While the only way to completely avoid moving anything yourself is going to be to hire movers, there are still ways that you can make moving much easier and still save money by moving on your own. This article will discuss 3 moving supplies that can make moving so much easier for you. 

A Dolly 

Moving dollies have been around for a long time and that is likely because they work so well. Dollies allow you to load heavy objects onto them, strap them into place, and then wheel them to wherever you need them to go. This makes loading items onto and out of the moving truck much easier because rather than trying to walk with a bulky item, such as a fridge, washing machine, dresser, etc. in your hands, you are instead smoothly wheeling it into place and then sliding it off the dolly. While having one of these is great, it may be more time efficient to purchase a couple of dollies to move multiple items at one time. 

Furniture Sliders

Furniture is another large item that can often times be hard to lift up and carry for long distances. Furniture sliders are small disks that you can place under the feet of your furniture so that you can slide them as far as possible without harming your floors in anyway. These are great if you don't have a lot of man power to help with moving, and need to save your strength for when you absolutely have to carry items. The furniture sliders are also small and quite affordable, so storing them and purchasing them likely will not be an issue for you. 

Forearm "Forklift" Moving Straps 

Sometimes when you are carrying an item, it would be nice to have a bit more support at the bottom. The forearm "forklift" moving straps provide you with this extra support when moving a large item. The straps go up and under the object that you are carrying and then rest on your forearms as you carry the item. This distributes the weight of the object more evenly and allows you to have a better hold on it. The straps are also adjustable, making it easy to adjust them to different objects, as well as the different heights of the people carrying the object.
