How We Protect Heavy Appliances
Appliance movers face various issues while transferring appliances. For instance, it’s more difficult to move certain appliances. These complicated appliances include refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, dryers, and heavy furniture. So, heavy appliance movers often take extra care to move these appliances.
For instance, when moving refrigerators and fridges, we:
- Secure the doors with ropes or stretch tape, so they don’t hang open.
- Tape the connection cords to the fridge, so they don’t fall.
We take extra care of smaller appliances. This includes washers or dryers. Therefore, we also tape their cords to the appliances. In addition, California Movers:
- Cover the appliance with thick moving blankets.
- Then we hold these blankets in place with tapes.
Furthermore, stoves require more care because of the threat of fire. So, for stoves, we:
- Tape the cord to the stove’s back.
- Separate detachable parts and move separately.
- Wrap any glass or breakable parts in safe materials.
Finally, for whatever appliance we’re moving, we use a moving dolly. Any reputable appliance delivery service should have this device. A moving dolly is a device heavy appliance movers use to move heavy devices around safely.
Another critical factor is time. At California Movers, we work with the client’s timeframe. As a result, we can deliver or move heavy appliances within a short period, even on the same day you call us.

Appliance Moving FAQs
How long does California Movers take to deliver appliances?
California movers can deliver your appliances in record time. For instance, we offer same-day and next-day appliance moving services. In addition, we can move particular appliances in a few hours. Finally, even if you change your moving time, we’ll still deliver your appliances early.
Do all appliances require the same care?
No, different appliances need varying degrees of care while moving them. You can successfully move some appliances with the minimum care standards. However, you require extreme carefulness to move other appliance types. For instance, moving fridges and pianos require more care than some chairs and tables.
How long should I switch off a fridge before a move?
If you’re moving a fridge or freezer, switching it off 24 hours before moving would be best. This timeframe will allow the fridge to defrost. Furthermore, it allows oils and fluids to settle and stop flowing to the compressor. However, if you’re moving the fridge into storage, it’ll help to turn it off one week early. This extended period will allow the fridge to dry and escape molds while in storage.
