Moving a sofa from one city to another does not seem easy as you need to properly measure and need protection while transporting like quality packaging.
Protecting the sofa
Wipe it down, then wrap it in a clean cotton sheet or stretch film so fabric doesn’t snag.
Add a layer of bubble wrap or foam on arms, corners and legs, then wrap the whole thing in plastic or a moving blanket.
Remove cushions and pack them separately. Take off detachable legs and keep the screws in a labelled bag taped to the sofa.
For leather, avoid tight plastic directly on the surface for long periods, since it can trap moisture. Use a cotton sheet underneath.
Use corner protectors, and if it’s a recliner or sectional, secure moving parts and detach sections.
For a single sofa or a small move you can book truck tempo in bangalore (Tata Ace/Bolero Pickup style) through an app like LogisticMart, Porter.
While loading sofa in transport vehicle
Clear the path: doors open, floors protected with cardboard or sheets,
Lift with at least two people, keeping the sofa upright and tilted as needed on stairs. Tilt it on its end to get through narrow doors, checking the diagonal measurement first.
In the truck, load it against a wall, upright if possible, and strap it so it can’t shift. Place lighter items on top rather than heavy ones.
On arrival, inspect before the movers leave and note any damage on the delivery receipt.
