Avoiding Damage In Transit When Moving House

Moving house can be complicated at the best of times, but if you’re putting the pressure on yourself to transport valuables solo, this can raise the stakes even further. Avoiding damage in transit isn’t simply a case of placing objects in the back of your van and truck while hoping for the best - there’s certainly a formula to consider, and enlisting the very best to give you a helping hand could be beneficial. Within this blog post, let Rose Removals take you through everything from wrapping and protecting valuables, to hiring the right vehicle for the job.



Padding And Wrapping

Padding and wrapping is one brilliant way to ensure your possessions don’t encounter any issues during transit, with many professional companies opting to temporarily cover items and goods with layers of padding and bubble wrap. This ensures that should a vehicle encounter potholes or turn a sharp corner, the objects themselves don’t sustain the bulk of the damage.

Choose A Reliable Moving Company

Choosing a reliable moving company isn’t simply a case of looking to see if there are providers in your area and settling on the first to crop up - you should certainly consider the pros and cons of the various organisations. At Rose Removals, we place an emphasis on ensuring all of your valuables and fragile items are completely protected. We will carefully pack and transport your belongings to your destination safely and on time. If you’re looking to do the packing yourself, we can supply you with a range of packing materials to accommodate your needs.

Protecting Valuables

Protecting valuables could involve everything from stashing items in containers and separating them to avoid collisions, to ensuring heavy items and valuables are located in different areas of your truck or van - perhaps different vehicles altogether. Protecting your items is an important step to take, and doing the wrong thing could result in breakages, costing you potentially thousands.
