Consider how <strong>to</strong> protect your possessions<br />

There are two fac<strong>to</strong>rs at play when it comes <strong>to</strong> protect<strong>in</strong>g your possessions<br />

dur<strong>in</strong>g a move: theft <strong>and</strong> breakage. With a DIY move, there is no risk of items<br />

be<strong>in</strong>g s<strong>to</strong>len. That said, it is <strong>in</strong>credibly rare <strong>for</strong> movers <strong>to</strong> steal objects,<br />

particularly if you hire a reputable mov<strong>in</strong>g company. You can also carry any<br />

valuables directly with you <strong>to</strong> further mitigate the risk.<br />

The bigger concern when mov<strong>in</strong>g on your own will be the potential <strong>for</strong><br />

break<strong>in</strong>g items. If you carry someth<strong>in</strong>g <strong>to</strong>o heavy <strong>for</strong> you, there is a chance you<br />

will drop it, which could mean los<strong>in</strong>g someth<strong>in</strong>g valuable. S<strong>in</strong>ce movers carry<br />

heavy <strong>and</strong> awkward objects all day long <strong>for</strong> a liv<strong>in</strong>g, they are much less likely<br />

<strong>to</strong> damage your possessions by accident. They also know the best way <strong>to</strong> wrap<br />

up large, fragile items, such as TVs, mirrors <strong>and</strong> cab<strong>in</strong>ets with glass.
