Q: How do you transport a bed frame?

• <div><p>To transport a bed frame, disassemble it as much as needed and then wrap it with moving blankets or bubble wrap to prevent damage. If you&rsquo;re transporting the frame in your vehicle, check to ensure it&rsquo;ll fit before you start. If not, you might need to rent a moving truck or hire professional movers to transport your bed frame to its new home.</p></div>

Q: Can you lay a TV down when moving?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s important to never lay a flat-screen TV on its side when moving. Weight can damage the fragile screen, and falling objects are a risk. Always place your TV upright between other large flat objects so it isn&rsquo;t crushed when the load shifts on a turn. Use moving blankets to pad the space between the objects. </p></div>

Q: What is the largest a tiny home can be and still be moved?

• <div><p>The maximum size of a tiny home you can move depends on your state transportation guidelines, but the rule of thumb is a maximum of <b>400 square feet.</b> However, as long as it falls within the local limits for traveling on public roadways, you should be good to hit the road.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to pack mirrors for moving?

• <div><p>The best way to pack mirrors is to use specially padded cartons or boxes made for mirrors. Be sure to thoroughly wrap the fragile mirror in padded paper or bubble wrap before sliding it into its box. That way, there&rsquo;s a protective barrier in between the mirror and the box. Then, fill in any gaps with crumpled paper or additional packing materials.</p></div>

Q: Do movers charge by weight or volume?

• <div><p>Most moving companies don&rsquo;t charge by weight or volume unless you&rsquo;re freight shipping items. The cost of hiring movers typically depends on the number of movers and time spent on the task.</p></div>

You keep raising our goals so we bring the company in more money but no matter what we still make the same amount. If our goal is 30k and we hit 100% to goal we still make the same amount as if our goal is 50k and hit 100% to goal. We are working harder and bringing in the company more money but are not making more. It is not motivating.
