Video was very helpful and instructive. You have clear diction, which makes it easy to understand. I'm from Pittsburgh, too. Born Wilkinsburg, lived in Churchill.
Thanks for the positive feedback, we really appreciate it! It sounds like we're practically neighbors. Our family started the business in Wilkinsburg, in 1936.
I’d love to see a video for an international move and how packing differs.
I will do my best to make a video about packing and protecting furniture for an international move soon.
Thank you for this awesome video! I learned a lot!
Thanks! 🙃🙂
Oh thank you so much. I hope it comes available before my move.
No problem! We're happy this helps. 🙂
good directions, just starting out, and i need to make videos myself for new movers....thanks for helping me with this and do you also have videos showing them how to act in front of customers?
Mladen, thanks for watching our videos and taking the time to comment. We are working on a series of videos. We haven't filmed a video about how to interact with a customer, but we might do one soon. Thanks for the idea!
When to just use the rubber bands and when to use stretch wrap? Or use both??
As we say in the video, you should only use rubber bands and pads. However, there are times when stretch wrap can be used. Typically when you have drawers that like to slide out and need to be held in place, or if you have glass on the front and you need to hold cardboard in place to protect the glass. Check out a few of our other videos, we have a few that go over those scenarios.
Would you pack a lot differently for overseas to go into a container than you would across country or the concepts pretty much remain the same? Is there such a thing as over padding?
That's a great question! There is no such thing as over padding; however, some small older furniture may need to be padded in other ways or with other types of pads. We are currently working on more videos to explain how that is done. For smaller fragile items we recommend using burlap pads, also known as skins. These are light enough for fragile items, but strong enough to protect them. Overseas shipments are packed and padded using boxes and paper pads. All furniture is wrapped and padded using paper pads. This technique is much different than cross country or local moving. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment Michael! We'll make a video series addressing overseas shipments.
Great video. Where can I get rubber bands to purchase
Victory Packaging is the company we purchase our rubber bands from. I've linked their website below. 👇

Would you use any plastic wrap over the drawers first to make sure they don’t come out as you move the furniture?
Hello Maggie! No, professional movers will not use any plastic wrap on an average dresser. (Please note that all of the drawers should be empty prior to moving the dresser.) Once the pads and bands are in place, they will keep the drawers from opening. Also, properly lifting and carrying the furniture will keep the drawers from opening.
You should shrink wrap first especially heavy ones
@@mohicantheluststar2550no need to shrink wrap a dresser. A couch yah. Not a dresser
For oak dressers or wardrobes that are heavy empty, it is good to remove clothes before wrapping?
Regardless of the weight, we recommend removing everything from your dressers. Those items should be packed in boxes.
Love that you are using rubber bands instead of tape. What size rubber band is that?
Hey Judith! Thanks for watching the video. We use three sizes of rubber bands: small, medium, and large. The bands we use in this video happen to be large. If your interested in getting some for your move, you can pick them up at places like Victory Packing, and Movers Supply House. I've attached a link below.

@@StumpfMovingandStorage Thanks much!
@@judithl.1349 No problem!
Would this be ideal for shipping furniture over seas?
This is not the ideal way to wrap furniture for an overseas shipment. We will be doing a video on how that is done soon!
Corrugated brown bubble pack is the way to go you can cut it to any size you’d like, blankets is more for local and long distance moves
Using "Lift Vans" lined with cardboard, and paper pads to wrap furniture is the industry standard for packing overseas shipments.
Would you use 2 covers for every dresser?
Hello Jorge! The amount of moving pads used is directly based on how large the dresser is. Typically two pads are used to insure all sides of the dresser are covered correctly. To answer your question directly, use as many pads necessary to fully cover and protect your dresser.
@@StumpfMovingandStorage Thank You! I really enjoy your videos and take in a lot of info.

What happened to the feet?
Hello Kylle! This particular peace of furniture does not have any feet. It was designed to sit as it does in the video.
@@StumpfMovingandStoragedo you have any videos on how to properly cover the feet ,
@@donbucket5742 if you follow the steps in the video, the legs of the dresser also be covered. There are no special steps needed. Make sure you cover the legs when padding the dresser. Then pull the rubber band down far enough to keep the pad in place. We will try to make a video explaining and showing that soon.
@@StumpfMovingandStorage thank you mr stumpf moving ,
I would cover the bottom of my furniture but that is my personal choice.
Hello Ashley! There is no need to protect the bottom/underside of this style of furniture. Once it is wrapped the furniture is picked up and carried to the truck where it is set into place and used as "base" while loading. We have more videos in the works describing the loading process. So, when loaded and carried properly, there is no threat of damage to the underside. The only time professional movers will wrap the bottom of furniture like this, is for an overseas shipment because furniture is loaded into "lift vans".
