Moving Safely & How to Avoid Injuries

Moving Safely & How to Avoid Injuries

Tips from Professional Movers in Farmington Hills, MI

At University Moving and Storage, we work hard to create moving plans that fit your schedule, your budget, and your needs. That means you’re welcome to do parts of your move yourself or tell us which specific tasks you need help with. We understand that using a DIY approach for moving might seem like the cheapest option—but when you take into account the risk to yourself, your family and helpers, and your household items that not hiring professional moving companies entails, the price might be higher than you think.

Our professional packers and movers provided these suggestions to keep your whole household safe during the moving process:

• Wear the Right Clothing - Depending on what task you’re completing, that might mean gloves, closed toe shoes, knee pads, or a back brace. If you know that yourself or someone helping you has back or knee problems, make use of the proper braces and pads to keep yourself safe. Especially when you’re moving heavy items, wear heavy-duty shoes with sturdy tread, and clothing that won’t get caught in doorways or on the items you’re moving.
• Use Your Resources - Our team of professional movers in Farmington Hills, MI makes frequent use of dollies and lifts, and we bring a toolbox so that we can disassemble furniture when needed. Helpful items to have at hand include screwdrivers, wrenches, and hammers. Using tools can help you avoid moving something too bulky or heavy for the help you have at hand.
• Have Help for Kids or Pets - One common problem for families is having kids and pets underfoot as you or the movers in Farmington Hills, MI receive service from try to move throughout your home. Try designating a certain room or space as the kid room, with a box of toys, games, or comfort items to keep kids and pets occupied.
