Moving a washing machine yourself
You probably think when moving a washing machine, I can do this myself, right? We advise you to keep in mind that it is not easy to move a washing machine. A washing machine is not exactly light, often weighing more than a hundred kilos.
In addition, it is a very awkward object to lift. A washing machine is also very fragile, parts can be easily damaged. Moving a washing machine down stairs is extra difficult and can even compromise your safety. To give you a hand with moving your washing machine, Oomen Movers has created a step-by-step plan so you know how best to move your washing machine:
- Loading:
- Preparation: Disconnect the washer from the water supply and electricity. Make sure the drum is empty and use transport bolts to lock the drum.
- Packing: Protect the washer with bubble wrap or blankets to prevent scratches and damage. Secure all loose parts such as hoses and cables.
- Loading: Use a furniture cart or trolley to carefully move the washer to the transport vehicle. Make sure the machine is securely fastened in the vehicle to prevent shifting during transport.
- Moving:
- Safety: Make sure the transport vehicle is suitable for heavy equipment and drive carefully to minimize shock.
- Supervision: If possible, ask someone to help move the washer to avoid accidents or damage.
- Route: Plan the route so you don’t encounter unnecessary obstacles and avoid rough roads whenever possible.
- Unloading:
- Be careful: Carefully remove the washer from the vehicle using a furniture cart or trolley.
- Placement: Move the washer to the desired location and remove the protective materials.
- Installation: Connect the washer to the water supply and electricity, remove the shipping bolts and make sure the machine is level before you put it back in service.
So, a washing machine is often an expensive object, but above all, a washing machine is one of the first appliances you want to use.
