Most people don’t think about what’s considered household goods unless they are shipping items. Whether you are moving for a job or just because you need something bigger or different, you should consider a courier to help you move these items. Many couriers are also removal companies or packers and movers, allowing you to get everything taken care of quickly and efficiently.
Living Room
Your living room probably holds a lot of large, bulky and heavy items. Typical living rooms have televisions, entertainment centers, bookcases, couches, recliners, coffee tables and other large items. They may also have radios, lamps and other items. These items can be difficult to pack and ship, but courier companies can handle these large items and get them ready to go into your new home.
Bathroom
Most people prefer not to take their large bathroom items, such as toilets and sinks. Unless you have an antique tub on legs, you’ll find it impossible to take the tub with you. However, your bathroom likely has a lot of small items that must be packed up, such as shampoos, bubble bath, washcloths, towels and cleaning supplies. Household goods shipping doesn’t mean that you can only pack up and ship large items. You can also ship these smaller items to have in your new home. It is usually helpful to pack up the items that are extra into one box and mark it as bathroom so it is out of the way quickly.
Kitchens
Your kitchen, like your living room, likely has a lot of large items. While some people take their refrigerator and stove, some cannot do so because they were part of the house before they arrived. Whether or not you are taking your stove and refrigerator, you’ll have a kitchen table with chairs, microwaves, hutches, china, stools and medium-sized appliances such as broasters, Crock pots, inside grills, mixers and more. Your kitchen also holds a lot of small items, such as pots and pans, dinnerware, plates, serving dishes and much more.
Bedrooms
Bedrooms can be full of household goods as there are both small and large items. Bed frames, dressers, vanities and desks can all be part of the bedroom, along with knick-knacks, clothing, shoes, jewelry, extra bedding and more. Shipping items from the bedroom can be slightly difficult because you’ll probably have more than one bedroom, so writing clearly on each box is very important.
