Large Item Movers in Los Angeles

How to Move Large Items?

If your large items can be disassembled you can make big things easier to move by removing attached parts. For example, don’t move a wardrobe with contents still inside. You could remove furniture’s legs and knobs if possible. Disassembling bulky furniture or equipment also helps if doorways are particularly small in your building. A helpful tip is to label everything you remove so you won’t lose it or make a mess during the move. At Muraway, our large item moving specialists are experts at furniture disassembly and reassembly, so you won’t have to lift a finger to take your sofa or table apart or remember where pieces go. 

How Much Does it Cost to Move Large Items in LA?

Sometimes the drawbacks outweigh the benefits. Trying to cut costs by not not utilizing professional movers and performing the move yourself can end in disaster, especially if you have large bulky items that will need to be moved. It is incredibly difficult and can lead to damage to your expensive items or worse, to yourself. Contacting a quality moving company like Muraway means you won’t overpay for hidden fees because you’ll have an exclusive contract crafted just for you and your needs. 

For example, our company employees will not take additional payment as a reward for unforeseen circumstances. All conditions, terms, complexity of work are discussed in advance. There’s no need to put friends or family or even yourself in harm’s way. The best advice is to hire trusted and respected LA movers.

Who Should I Hire For Large Item Moving in Los Angeles?

When it comes to large items it’s better to delegate the moving process to professional Los Angeles movers. If you trust MuraWay moving company to handle your large items for you, you can be sure that your property will be delivered smoothly without any harm to the item.

Licensed Large Item Movers in Los Angeles

Los Angeles moving companies must be licensed prior to operating in California by the Bureau of Household Goods and Services. Make sure the movers you select are authorized to operate in state by BHGS. If you choose MuraWay company for relocating your heavy and large items they will be transported by fully licensed and trained movers.

Keep in mind that the movers of your choice must provide you with an estimate in writing only after they conduct an inspection of the items you need to be moved.

Consider paying the additional rate for a higher level of reimbursement coverage. Yes, California intrastate movers include basic coverage at no additional charge, but moving heavy objects can be dangerous. If one of the moving company employees is injured while moving your property it’s better to be assured that the employer has good liability protection and they won’t seek redress from you. When you choose MuraWay company for your move in LA you can be sure your property will be delivered in the safest and efficient way possible.

What Do I Need to Know Before Moving Large Items?

If your cargo is larger than standard-sized items, there are several variables and possible difficulties that are important to plan for. Don’t worry – there is nothing impossible for our experienced LA movers!

Movers from MuraWay company have the skills, experience and knowledge of Los Angeles routes. Each type of cargo must be transported in its own way. For example, you shouldn’t place objects that break quickly on the bottom, but light weight items should not be placed on top, as they can fly off during transportation. In addition, our professional movers know how to load the car correctly so that the moving truck is not overloaded and won’t break down.

We are always ready to help you to prepare for your large items moving in LA. Our moving specialists can even measure the size of your bulky item and build a crate with raw materials.

Properly Package Large Items for Moving

One of the most important things in a moving process is packaging. We suggest you use furniture blankets, pads or bubble wrap. Be sure the protective covering is secured to your heavy objects with tape so it doesn’t slip during the move.

Eco Friendly Packaging Options

Wooden crates for moving your stuff is a simple and very affordable way to get your bulky goods moved across Los Angeles or California. We can offer a quick solution for crate setup and packing when you need your stuff to be shipped safely.

Some fragile items might also be heavy. They can not only get damaged but also cause damage to other objects during the move. This might be a factor in your decision to use crates for your move. Cardboard boxes and tape can’t guarantee you the safest transportation when it comes to large items like this. Wooden crates are stronger and better equipped to handle heavy items.
