Successful and Professional Moving Services for Marion

When it comes to moving, the protection and care of belongings are top priorities. This is exactly what Marion experienced during her move with The Hendon Removal Company. As one of the leading Hendon moving companies, we ensure the meticulous collection, protection, and safe transportation of furniture and other household items. Marion's relocation was completed smoothly from start to finish thanks to our team's dedication and commitment to excellence.

Wrapping and Moving the King Size Mattress

The first thing to move was Marion's king-size mattress. Moving such a large item requires careful handling to prevent any damage. Our team used high-quality protective covers specifically designed for mattresses, shielding them from dirt, moisture, and tears during transit. The mattress was then loaded into our van, ensuring it remained upright to avoid bending or damage.

Handling the Divan Bed

Bulky beds come apart for the journey and go back together on arrival.

Next, we turned our attention to the 2-part, 4 drawer divan bed. Divans can be challenging to move because their bulk can make them difficult to handle. Our team expertly disassembled the divan and wrapped each part in protective padding to prevent scratches and dents. Each drawer was individually wrapped and secured to prevent movement and breakages during the move. Upon arrival, our team reassembled the divan with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring it was ready for immediate use.

Hendon homes bring their own challenges for reassembly. Most are inter-war semis with solid brick walls and original floorboards that are rarely level across a room, so wardrobes need shimming and levelling to sit truly plumb, and tall units need hammer drills and correctly rated masonry anchors rather than the plastic plugs supplied in flat-pack boxes. Our team comes fully prepared with its own tools and needs no help on the day. If you are furnishing a new home as well as moving into it, our furniture assembly service in Hendon builds flat-pack furniture from IKEA, Argos and other stores.

Protecting the Headboard and Bedside Table

Other bedroom furniture that we moved included a fabric headboard and two bedside drawers, each of which received equal care. The headboard was wrapped in blankets and secured against dents and scratches. The bedside drawers required careful handling. Each drawer was emptied, wrapped separately, and secured to prevent internal damage or shifting.

Wrapping the 3-Seat Sofa

Marion's 3-seat sofa was very big and heavy so it required special attention. Sofas are large and their fabric can be easily damaged if not properly covered. We used quality sofa covers and additional wrapping to protect the sofa from dirt and tears. Extra padding was applied to the corners and legs to prevent damage during the move. The sofa was then positioned appropriately in the moving van to ensure it reached its destination safely.

Moving The Patio Table and Chairs

The extra-large patio table and eight chairs required special attention due to their size and weight. Each chair was individually wrapped to prevent scratches and damage. Protective blankets and sturdy wrapping materials were used to secure these items in the van, ensuring they were safely moved to the new property.

Garden furniture is easy to overlook when planning a move, but a large table and eight chairs take up real space in the van and need as much protection as anything indoors. Mentioning them in your WhatsApp video survey means the right vehicle and enough blankets come on the day. Every van leaves with blankets, straps rated for the load and a sack trolley, so outdoor pieces are wrapped and secured like the rest of the house.

Wrapping and Moving the Dining Table and Chairs

Finally, the dining table was wrapped in protective plastic and carried into the van. Dining chairs often have delicate finishes that can scratch or damage easily, so each chair was carefully wrapped in soft padding to safeguard the wood and upholstery. The chairs were then loaded into the van, ensuring they did not touch other furniture that could cause damage.
