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: Can one person move a hot tub?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not possible for a single person to move a hot tub. However, it&rsquo;s possible for a small team of people to move a hot tub with the right skills and equipment. When hiring a moving team for this job, be sure to specify the size and weight of the item to ensure that they send several professionals to take care of the task.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to move out of a 4-bedroom house?

• <div><p>Moving day for a four-bedroom house can take seven to 10 hours, with an additional four to six full work days to pack everything up. This will depend on how many movers are present, the square footage of your house, how much stuff you have, and any heavy or difficult-to-move items, like a piano or armoire. </p></div>

Q: Can you pack plants in a moving truck?

• <div><p>When booking a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-size-moving-truck.htm">moving truck</a>, be sure to consult the company guidelines to determine whether they allow plants to ride in the moving vehicle. However, if you&rsquo;re making a long-distance move, you should transport your plants in a temperature-controlled environment, which may rule out a moving truck. If you can put your plants in the moving truck, consider stacking them in the farthest corner to avoid extreme temperatures.</p></div>

Q: How do I use moving straps on furniture with legs?

• <div><p>Unscrew and remove furniture legs if possible. If it&rsquo;s not possible, then run the straps parallel on the inner side of the furniture legs. Never put your straps on the outer side of legs where they can easily slip off.</p></div>

The move went very well— with 2 pickup locations. The final price was well over the estimate— although we did ask for help packing lamps and TVs, it was a bit of a surprise. Other than that, courteous service with no damage.
