How To Shrink Wrap Furniture?
For each item or piece of furniture you’re shrink wrapping, follow these 7 steps.
1. Clean the item with a dust rag or damp cloth. If wet, make sure it’s dry before wrapping.
2. Remove any parts that are easy to detach, such as chair legs. You’ll wrap them separately so they’ll be easier to move and less likely to get damaged.
3. If you’re wrapping leather/wooden furniture, cover it with paper padding.
4. If the item or piece of furniture has sharp corners, use foam or cardboard to cover the edges before wrapping them. Otherwise, the corners could damage the wall or other items.
5. Start wrapping. For large furniture, you’ll need to hold the roll of plastic as you walk around the piece. Let the plastic unwrap against the furniture. For the first walk around, you might need someone to hold the plastic against the furniture, so it doesn’t fall down. After the first round, the plastic should stick to itself and stay in place.
6. Once the item or furniture is completely wrapped, tear the shrink wrap against the furniture.
7. Move on to the next item!
If you have leftover shrink wrap after preparing your items to load onto the moving truck, consider using extra shrink wrap on jars and bottles of liquid. The plastic will prevent messy spills, should the lid come loose or something breaks.
You don’t even have to wrap the entire bottle or jar. Just remove the lid, wrap the top, and secure the lid tightly.
Knowing how to shrink wrap furniture and awkward items can make the difference between a move that’s stressful, and one that’s smooth and simple.
While it does take extra preparation, it can make your move much easier in the end.
