Q: Why do movers wrap furniture in plastic?

• <div><p>Movers wrap furniture in plastic to provide protection during transportation or storage. Plastic wrap acts as a barrier, safeguarding furniture from dust, dirt, moisture, and potential scratches or damage. It helps to keep upholstery, wood, or delicate surfaces intact, preventing wear and tear during the moving process. Additionally, plastic wrap helps to secure loose components of furniture, such as drawers or doors, reducing the risk of breakage.</p></div>

Q: How do I move a pet into a new apartment?

• <div><p>Apartments come with strict regulations about what pets are allowed, so check before you sign a lease. If you have a fish or reptile, wait to move them until everything is set up and you&rsquo;re ready to do a special move just for them and their aquarium/terrarium.</p><p>For a dog or cat, be sure you have a carrier before the move. On moving day, it&rsquo;s best to designate a &ldquo;safe room&rdquo; or even a crate for your pet to help them get used to the new space. Keep everything they need in the safe room, and let them explore the rest of the apartment in their own time.</p></div>

Q: Does car insurance cover moving?

• <div><p>It depends on your policy, but you may be covered for any damages to your personal property. How much you receive will depend on the circumstances under which property was damaged and if you can prove it was damaged during the incident on the road. Your insurance company may also only cover the cost to repair any items, and not outright replace them. Checking in with your insurance provider will help you get a clearer picture of your overall coverage. </p></div>

Q: How difficult is it to move a washer and dryer?

• <div><p>Moving a washer and dryer can be difficult due to the appliances&rsquo; weight and size. If you need to move these appliances up or down stairs, then it will be more challenging. It also depends on the type of dryer you have, as a gas dryer is more complicated to disconnect than an electric dryer. The difficulty of the task also depends on whether you&rsquo;re easily wheeling the washer and dryer up a moving truck&rsquo;s loading ramp or lifting them yourself. </p></div>

Q: Can I take my potted plants when I move?

• <div><p>Yes, you can take your potted plants with you when you move if you use sterilized potting soil. However, some states have strict guidelines about this practice, so it&rsquo;s best to consult the Department of Agriculture&rsquo;s regulations surrounding pest control and plant types ahead of your move.</p></div>
