When you’re gearing up for a move and choosing the do-it-yourself (DIY) route instead of hiring professional moving companies, you might be wondering how to best tackle the preparation and movement of your furniture. While it’s easy to pack smaller items like clothes, handling larger furniture pieces requires extra care.
