The living room mixes your most fragile electronics, awkward furniture and a lot of decor — it's the room where a rushed pack costs you a cracked TV or a scratched table. A little method keeps it intact.
Photograph the cables behind the TV and media center before unplugging, then bag and label every cord. Box the TV upright in its original or a telescoping carton, never flat. Pack speakers, consoles and components with padding, and carry small valuable gear with you.
Wrap lamp bases in paper and box shades separately. Bubble-wrap framed art, mirrors and glass and pack them on edge in mirror cartons — never flat. Wrap each decorative and breakable item individually and fill gaps so nothing shifts.
Pack books in small boxes (they're heavy), empty shelving units, and disassemble bookcases and entertainment centers if they're large, bagging the hardware. This is a great room to declutter — donate the books and decor you won't miss.
Sofas, coffee tables and recliners get blankets and stretch wrap, legs removed where possible, and cushions packed separately. Our crews wrap and move the bulky pieces and handle electronics as part of the move — see our TV & electronics guide, furniture protection guide, and book packing guide.
Photograph the cables, then box the TV upright (original or telescoping carton), never flat. Bag and label all cords together, and carry small valuable electronics with you.
Bubble-wrap them and pack on edge in mirror/picture cartons — never flat, where road vibration can crack the glass. Tape an X across large glass to hold it if it breaks.
The mix of fragile electronics, glass and bulky furniture. Take electronics and art slowly with proper materials, and disassemble large furniture to move it safely.
If it's large, yes — disassemble it, bag and tape the hardware to a panel, and it's easier to wrap, carry and fit through doorways.
