At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, we take pride in being the go-to moving resource for customers all across the country, and this goes well beyond standard home moving.
Our professionally trained franchise moving teams can do much more than lift a couch or mattress; we can also assist with the heavy, awkward items like appliances, safes, and gym equipment, too! These items require the training and moving expertise found amongst our franchise moving staff, as they’re often very difficult to move and require a team of experts who know how to navigate through a home when lifting these types of objects.
However, we understand some people want to move these items themselves, so we compiled a few of our best moving tips for those taking this route. If you're feeling overwhelmed, or you don't have the help needed to move these items, it's free and easy to reach out to us for a quote!
How To Move Gym Equipment
When it comes to moving gym equipment, you’ll want to focus on organization first and foremost, and you’ll also want to have additional help on hand. Here are a few important areas to focus on.
- Disassemble Equipment Before Moving: With the awkward weight distribution and shapes, it’s imperative to take the equipment apart before attempting to move it.
- Keep Track Of Parts And Pieces: There are plenty of screws, bolts, wheels, and other pieces involved in the construction of exercise equipment, so carefully organize each piece, place them in a bag, and label them properly.
- Use Professional Moving Equipment: Dollies, furniture sliders, and moving straps go a long way in safely moving this type of heavy equipment.
- Have Help On Hand: Do not try to move the exercise equipment alone, as there is the chance of injury and damage to your items during the moving process.
How To Move Safes Or Gun Safes
Moving any type of safe is one of the most difficult moving tasks you’ll encounter. If you’re going to take this on yourself, it is important to have friends or family there to help, and a heavy-duty moving dolly. Still, we strongly recommend hiring the help of a professional moving company to handle this.
