Moving Oversized & Heavy Items Through Tight Spaces (No Damage Guaranteed)

The classic moving dilemma: that beautiful, oversized piece of furniture that simply won’t fit through the front door, the narrow hallway, or the winding staircase. As your seasoned tough access removalist, Bartlett’s Move specialises in orchestrating the seemingly impossible. We guarantee a damage-free move for your heavy furniture movers through the tightest spots, ensuring both your belongings and your beloved property remain pristine.

Precision and Planning: The Art of Difficult Access Moving

For over 40 years, our family-led team has perfected a meticulous safe handling process that goes beyond brute strength. Difficult access moving through tight internal spaces relies on careful measurements, specialised equipment, and years of experience. We treat every corner and doorway as a precision challenge:

  • Custom Protection: We use layered, high-density padding and durable corner protectors to safeguard your furniture and the surrounding walls and doorways.
  • Disassembly Expertise: Where necessary, we provide expert, non-destructive disassembly and reassembly of modular or complex furniture pieces, ensuring structural integrity is maintained.
  • Maneuvering Mastery: Our highly trained heavy furniture movers use techniques like tilt-and-pivot, leverage control, and low-friction sliders to glide items past obstacles without scraping or bumping.

Preventing Damage: Our Guarantee for Your Property

When we undertake moving oversized & heavy items, protecting your property is paramount. It’s often the lack of planning that leads to scuffs on paint, chipped skirting boards, or damaged floorboards.

  • Floor & Wall Shields: We utilise temporary floor protection, door jamb protectors, and wall shields throughout the access route to create a protective corridor for your furniture.
  • Specialised Tools: Our arsenal includes custom-built dollies, low-profile jacks, and ergonomic carrying straps that distribute weight evenly, making large items easier to control on stairs and tight corners.
  • Problem Solvers: If internal access truly fails, our ability to pivot to external solutions (like our balcony lift system, detailed in our other blog posts) means we always have a Plan B.
