Appliances & electronics moving

Empty the appliance if it holds anything, then disconnect every cable and coil it neatly so the ends are not stressed or bent. Tape any moving doors shut so they cannot swing open while the appliance is being carried and scratch the surface or catch on a nearby piece. Keep the user manual in a bag beside the appliance rather than inside it, and photograph the back panel before you unplug anything, so you know exactly where each cable goes when you reconnect everything in the new place.

Yes. Kitchen moving covers electrical appliances such as the oven, washing machine and fridge, as well as the kitchen cabinets and units. Cabinets are taken apart, wrapped and reassembled in the new kitchen. The scope varies depending on the size of the kitchen, whether the cabinets are wall-mounted or floor-standing, the worktop material, and how many appliances are involved. Send photos of the whole kitchen on WhatsApp so we can see what needs dismantling and what can travel as one piece.

Disconnect each cable and place it in a small bag marked with the device name. TV, computer and monitor cables look very similar, and mixing them up costs time at the other end. Before you unplug anything, photograph the back of each device. If there are several ports and sockets, that photograph is your guide when you reconnect everything in the new room. Coil each cable loosely and fasten it with a light tie rather than binding it tightly, because a hard bend at the connector end can damage the wire inside.

A screen or a glass front can be scratched or cracked by contact during loading: another piece brushing the surface, or an edge that catches the glass. Each screen or glass front is first wrapped in stretch film to hold any protruding parts in place, then cardboard corner guards are fitted on all four edges to absorb any knock. The screen face is kept away from any hard surface while the piece is being carried. Glass-fronted appliances such as certain ovens and microwave doors are handled the same way.

A problem after a move can have several causes, among them: the appliance was jolted while still plugged in, a liquid that was not fully drained shifted inside it during the journey, or it was switched on immediately on arrival without time to settle. To cut down on these risks, unplug the appliance well before the move, empty and dry any compartment that holds water, and let it stand without power for a good stretch of time after it reaches the new place. This last step matters most for any cooling appliance, because the refrigerant needs time to resettle after the machine has been moved.

The choice depends on how many appliances you have, how large each one is, and which single piece is the biggest, whether that is an American-style fridge, a large washing machine or a multi-part gym machine. The pickup suits a small number of appliances that fit its bed comfortably. Once the load grows, or when the pieces are heavy and bulky, the dyna truck is the better fit. Send photos of everything you want moved on WhatsApp, give us the current address and the new address, and we will suggest the right vehicle and give you a quote based on what you have described.

Yes, furniture and appliances going to the same address at the same time can travel together. Some large medical or gym appliances may need a specific loading arrangement that differs from ordinary furniture, because weight and shape affect how pieces are placed on the truck. That arrangement becomes clear once we see what you have. Send photos of every piece, along with both addresses, on WhatsApp and we will assess the total load and suggest the right vehicle between the dyna truck and the pickup.
