Q: Can you lay a refrigerator down to move it?

• <div><p>You can lay a refrigerator down to move it with a lot of padding underneath, but it&rsquo;s best to transport it upright to keep the cooling refrigerant and compressor oil in place. These elements can cause blockages if not given time to settle before turning the fridge on. </p><p>If you need to lay the fridge down to move it, position the fridge door hinges so that doors won&rsquo;t open while moving.</p></div>

Q: How long does an out-of-state move typically take?

• <div><p>Depending on distance and individual scheduling needs, from a few days to a week.</p></div>

Q: How should I pack mugs for moving to prevent them from breaking?

• <div><p>To pack mugs safely for a move, start by lining the bottom of your moving box with padded material like bubble wrap. Wrap each mug individually; for a snug fit, you can tuck the ends of the bubble wrap sheet inside the mug. Place the wrapped mugs in the box, using a box with slots for extra separation if available. The key to preventing breakage is to pack the box tightly enough that the mugs cannot shift during transit. Fill any empty gaps with additional packing material. However, be careful not to pack more than 10 mugs in one box, as it can become too heavy to carry safely. Finally, be sure to label the box as &ldquo;fragile&rdquo; to alert movers to handle it with care.</p></div>

Q: Can I move a gun safe by myself?

• <div><p>Depending on your safe&rsquo;s size and weight, we don&rsquo;t recommend moving the safe without hiring professional movers. A moving service will have the equipment and skills necessary to move this heavy, bulk item safely. If you insist on moving it yourself, enlist the help of a few friends to help you move the gun safe with a furniture dolly.</p></div>

Q: How much does a 1,000-mile move cost?

• <div><p>The cost of a long-distance move depends on several factors, including whether you hire movers, use a moving truck, and the size of your move. For a 1,000-mile move, you&rsquo;ll need to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-hire-interstate-moving-company.htm">hire interstate movers</a> and ask them for an estimate based on the details of your move. Keep in mind that a 1,000-mile move will likely cost <b>$10,000 or more</b>.</p></div>
