Another alternative is to resell or give away your old furniture. “One person’s trash is another person’s new sofa,” as the old adage goes. Or something along those lines. You never know when someone in need of a nightstand or dining set will come upon your secondhand furniture!
Step 4 – Clear any clutter and remove any potentially damaged items.
Whether your home is pristine or has a “lived-in” appearance, you must ensure that the areas where the delivery team will be working are free of anything that could potentially obstruct the delivery.
Remove any loose rugs that could cause tripping. Remove any objects that could fall if bumped or jostled, and relocate any items that could be in the delivery team’s path. Removing potentially damaged components saves time and ensures that your porcelain Russian nesting doll collection stays nested.
Finally, ensure that the walkway and rooms where your furniture will be placed are free of clutter and potential tripping hazards. Nothing ruins a delivery day more than a shattered child’s toy or damage caused by an unintentional fall.
Step 5: Protect any pets or children.
Your little furballs adore you, and they may enjoy the company of the delivery team as well, but a cherished family pet is also a tripping danger for a furniture delivery team. Nobody wants their Floofy-kin to be blamed for a sofa-shaped hole in their wall.
Make sure your pets are safe and cannot get underfoot throughout the delivery procedure to avoid animal mishaps. The delivery team will appreciate not having to keep an eye out for stray paws and tails, and your pets will be thrilled to explore the new furniture once it arrives!
New furniture delivery are thrilling for everyone, especially your children! They’ll want to be the first ones to sit on your couch or at your dining table! Your furniture delivery can be an excellent opportunity to bond with your family around your common interest!
However, as exciting as new furniture might be for children, bear in mind that furniture can be enormous, heavy, and dangerous to your children. To avoid accidently stepping on small toes, keep your children a safe distance away from the delivery team.
