Moving Guide
Moving Large Furniture Through Narrow Doorways
Tight doorways and hallways are a common challenge in Florida homes and condos. With the right approach, large furniture can move through narrow spaces without damage. Here is how.
Measure First
- Measure the furniture's height, width, and depth
- Measure the doorway and any tight turns along the route
- Identify pieces that will not fit without disassembly
Disassemble and Protect
Remove legs, doors, and detachable sections to reduce the footprint. Wrap door frames and furniture corners with padding to prevent scratches and dents.
Use the Right Angle
Rotating a piece to its side or tilting it at an angle often lets it pass where it would not fit straight on. Professional movers are experienced with these techniques and the equipment to support them.
