Handling and Moving Furniture

Modified on Sun, 28 Jul at 11:33 AM

To minimize the risk of personal injury, it is recommended that care is taken when handling furniture.


Any piece of furniture, especially sofas and chairs, should never be dragged or dropped, as this can result in damage to the upholstery and/or flooring. If you are moving furniture, please make sure to follow these three rules: bend your legs, keep your back straight, and hold your head up.


Furniture should be handled by grasping either side of the arms on the outside of the piece.


Note: If an individual feels the task is too much for them alone, they should seek assistance rather than risk injury and/or damaging the furniture and/or flooring.


Custom-made upholstery is designed and packaged for safe transportation. Our 1-MAN and 2-MAN teams will deliver and handle your furniture with care to ensure there is no damage to upholstery, frames, and feet.


All our velvet furniture is wrapped in a layer of fiber and then double layers of plastic before sending it out to the customer for safe delivery. However, please note that some pressure marks can occur during transport (and with general use, such as being sat on or moved around). This is inevitable with 100% cotton velvet, and it is not a product that will appear pristine as soon as it is handled, touched, or used.
