Taking off the legs when packing a sofa/ couch
Remove the legs when packing a sofa/ couch
To start with you will need to take all the legs off the sofa before we start to wrap it up, for some sofa/ couch legs you will need a alan-key to take the legs off and others you can twist off and some you can’t take off at all.
Once you have taken the legs off you will need to place them into a plastic bag and wrap with bubble wrapping so that none of the legs go missing when it come to assembling the sofa/ couch
For that extra protection if your sofa/ couch has hard wooden bits you will need to cover these with some pieces of cardboard cut to the right size and then stick the cardboard to the wood bits with sticky tape.
Packing a sofa/ couch with shrink or bubble wrap
Packing a sofa/ couch with shrink-wrap
If using bubble wrap or shrink-wrap you will need to stand the sofa/ couch on it side, you may need two people to assist you with this start from the top end of the sofa/couch stick down the shrink-wrap or bubble wrap at the bottom of the sofa/ couch and wrap the shrink-wrap tightly around the sofa until it is fully covered in shrink-wrap, depending on the size roll of bubble wrap and the shrink will depend on how many rolls you will need to wrap it properly. This will help protect it from the rain, clean or from getting dirty in any way when being moved. To finish it off stick down the shrink and bubble wrap with some tape.
Packing a sofa/couch using plastic protectors
Packing a sofa/ couch with plastic protectors
If packing a sofa/ couch and you are using a sofa/ couch protector you may want to follow the above instructions as well as using a sofa/ couch protector, this will guarantee that your sofa/ couch will reach its new destination without any scuffs or scrapes.
When packing a sofa/ couch in sofa/ couch protectors you will need to take the protectors and tear off a plastic sheet, open the sheet and place over the sofa/ couch head rest, pull the plastic sofa/couch protector down over the sofa right down to the bottom.
Turn the sofa on to its back so that the part you lean back on to is on the floor, pull the plastic sofa protectors together at the bottom of the sofa and then tape the end of the bag together, packing a sofa/ couch using plastic sofa protectors is an easier more efficient way of packing a sofa/ couch.
Packing a sofa/ couch with removal blankets
Packing a sofa/ couch with removal blankets
Now you will need some removal blankets and another person to assist you if you are on your own, using the same technique place the sofa/ couch on to its side cover the side nearest to the ceiling with removal blankets, then wrap the removal blankets round the sofa/ couch taping down all the corners to stop it falling off, continue wrapping the removal blankets until the sofa is fully covered with removal blankets, if you have followed all techniques you can finish off by wrapping the sofa with some straps to hold the removal blankets to the sofa when being placed onto the removal truck or being carried over a long distance. However when packing a sofa/ couch you can choose how much protection you want your sofa to have before it is moved. When having the professionals in to assist in packing a sofa/ couch it shouldn’t take them no longer that 20-30 mins to complete with two people.

How to take a Door off its Hinges
When learning how to take a door off its hinges you will see how simple a task this is to complete, you will need to make sure that you have a plan of where you will put the door once it has been taken off its hinges, you will also need a flat or star headed screwdriver. If the screws are very tight and hard to turn you may want to use a power drill with the screw point attached, this will allow for the screws to come lose with least effort.

The best solution when it comes to finding out how to take a door off its hinges
[divider icon=”” style=”none”]
[icon icon=”info” size=”small” style=”simple” shape=”inherit” text_color=”#000000″ bg_color=”#f48a00″]When learning how to take a door off its hinges and you are on your own its always best to start from the bottom hinges of the door first, this is so that the weight of the door doesn’t fall on top of you if you were to start from the top of the door to the bottom.
[icon icon=”info” size=”small” style=”simple” shape=”inherit” text_color=”#000000″ bg_color=”#f48a00″]Now we can start taking the door off, if the hinges and screws are rusty use WD40 to help loosen the screws and the hinges. You will need a screw driver most screws in the hinges will need a flat headed screwdriver, there will be 3-4 screws holding each hinge to the door frame.
How to take a door off its hinges
[icon icon=”info” size=”small” style=”simple” shape=”inherit” text_color=”#000000″ bg_color=”#f48a00″]Turn the screws anticlockwise until all the screws are out from the bottom hinge.
[icon icon=”info” size=”small” style=”simple” shape=”inherit” text_color=”#000000″ bg_color=”#f48a00″]Half way up the door you will have another set of hinges repeat the same process as with the bottom hinge remember to turn anticlockwise.
[icon icon=”info” size=”small” style=”simple” shape=”inherit” text_color=”#000000″ bg_color=”#f48a00″]Once this has been done you will only have the top hinge and screws to do, the door will be unattached at the bottom, keep it straight and in line with the door frame to avoid damaging the top hinges.
[icon icon=”info” size=”small” style=”simple” shape=”inherit” text_color=”#000000″ bg_color=”#f48a00″]This is the part you have to be careful and take extra care, it will be safer if you wedge some old books underneath the door before taking the top hinges and screws out, this is done so that the weight off the door doesn’t fall when you take the last few screw out. Take the top hinges and screws out turning all screws anticlockwise when the last screw is out the door will come free and you will be able to paint or replace as you wish.
