Frequently Asked Questions
About Moving Antiques

Whether it’s your great grandfather’s old armoire or a set of china passed down from your aunt, every family has at least a few pieces of furniture or decor that could be considered antiques. And while these pieces may hold sentimental value, they can also be a pain to move – especially if you’re unsure how to go about it.
Here are a few frequently asked questions we get about moving antiques and our expert tips on how to properly care for them during a move:

One of the most common risks when moving antiques is damage to the piece. This can happen during transit if the piece is not properly packed or protected. It can also happen if the piece is not handled correctly – for example, if it’s dropped or banged into something.

Another risk is warping. That piece of furniture that’s been in your family for generations may not survive the move if it’s not packed correctly. Warping can happen when wood furniture is exposed to changes in temperature or humidity, so it’s important to take steps to protect your antiques from the elements during a move.

There are a few things you can do to protect your antiques during a move:

  • Pack them properly. This means using sturdy boxes that are the right size for the piece and packing material like bubble wrap or foam peanuts to cushion and protect it.
  • Handle them with care. When lifting or carrying an antique, use proper technique so you don’t drop or damage the piece.
  • Protect them from the elements. If possible, keep your antiques indoors during the move to avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or humidity. If you must move them outside, cover them with a tarp or blanket to protect them from the weather.
  • Keep an eye on them. If possible, don’t pack your antiques out of sight – this will make it easier to keep an eye on them and make sure they’re not damaged during the move.

Yes, if you have a piece of antique that is particularly valuable – either financially or sentimentally – you may want to consider insuring it for the move. This will give you peace of mind knowing that if something happens to the piece during transit, you will be compensated for its value.

When getting insurance for your move, be sure to ask about coverage for antiques and other valuable items – not all policies cover these items.

Moving large or bulky antiques can be a challenge, but there are a few things you can do to make it easier:

  • Measure the piece before you move it. This will help you determine what size doorways or staircases it will fit through and whether you need to disassemble it to get it out of the house.
  • Don’t do it alone. Having extra people to help will make lifting and carrying the antique easier and reduce the risk of damage. And if there are professional antique movers in your area, it may be worth the investment to hire them to handle the move for you.
  • Use furniture sliders. These are devices that you place under the legs of furniture to make it easier to slide across carpet or hard floors. This can be a big help when moving heavy or bulky pieces.
  • Be careful going downstairs. When moving an antique down a flight of stairs, take your time and be extra careful to avoid dropping or damaging the piece. You may want to recruit some additional helpers for this part of the move.

Many moving companies claim they can handle your antiques, but how do you know they’re reputable? Here are a few things to look for:

  • Look for a company that specializes in antique moves. This shows they have the experience and expertise to pack and move your pieces properly.
  • Check out their website. A reputable antique moving company will have a professional-looking website with information about their services and how to contact them.
  • Read online reviews. A quick Google search will reveal any red flags about a company, so be sure to read what others are saying before you choose a mover.
  • Get quotes from multiple companies. This will help you compare pricing and services and choose the right company for you.
