How To Safely Moving Refrigerator Washing Machine And Air Conditioner

Large home equipment like refrigerators, washing machines and air conditioners require more preparation than normal household items as these appliances comprise electrical, mechanical and sometimes refrigerant related components. They can be dented, have internal damage, have loose parts, leak water or have installation issues at the new residence if not handled properly. The safest way to do so is to prepare each appliance individually before packing begins.

Customers wishing to move with **ShiftingWale** should notify the moving staff in advance of the kind and size of appliances. Families availing **Household Shifting Services** should also indicate whether the appliances are located on the upper levels, whether lift access is accessible and whether any dismantling or technical support may be necessary before shifting.

Preparing the Fridge Before You Move

The refrigerator must be entirely drained prior to transfer. Remove food, bottles, trays and unsecured items within. Secure removable shelves and drawers separately if desired. The refrigerator should be turned off in advance and allowed to defrost properly so that extra water does not generate leaking during packing or movement.

Families hiring a **Home Shifting Service** should avoid packing a refrigerator shortly after it is unplugged.
