How to Ship Furniture
It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3!
- 1- Create Your Listing
First, you’ll want to consider the measurements and weight of your furniture. You may have to provide your best guess, but the more accurate, the better. Think about the time frame you can provide the furniture movers and be as detailed as possible. Let them know the level of care you prefer.
You have some options when it comes to services available for moving furniture. For furniture that requires special care or assembly, you should consider hiring white glove movers. This is the highest level of furniture shipping service. White glove moving companies pick up, move, deliver, and assemble your furniture inside your home. Some furniture may already be in a crate and can be shipped via LTL (Less than Truckload) shipping.
- 2- Choose the Best Furniture Shipping Services
After your shipment is listed on BBC Cargo Services, you’ll start getting quotes directly from carriers who specialize in moving furniture as they compete for your business. You’re able to ask them questions directly and talk to them about your shipment, giving you a feel for the carrier.
Each transporter has a carrier profile with BBC Cargo Services that shows you their transport history, safety records, and customer-rated feedback. While price matters, we strongly encourage you to review these profiles as the quotes come in. Most furniture shipping companies have photos of their trucks and shipments they’ve completed. They will also let you know what kind of cargo insurance they carry. You may want to purchase additional cargo insurance through BBC Cargo Services. Checking their profile and talking with them through your listing will help you feel confident you’re selecting the best furniture movers for the job.
- 3- Furniture Transport & Delivery
Once you’ve selected your transporter, contact them for any additional details, questions or concerns you have about your shipment. Make sure they’re able to manage the level of care you need for your furniture shipment. Share contact information for any third parties involved, and let us know if any issues come up. We’re here to help before, during and after your furniture delivery.

How to Prepare Furniture for Moving:
If you can disassemble furniture, do so.
Keep screws and small pieces in a plastic bag taped to the specific piece of furniture.
Drawers should be removed. Your best bet is to clean out the contents and pack the empty drawers. If you want to keep the drawer’s contents in place, just put the entire drawer inside a plastic trash bag. Tie the bag tightly and label it properly.

Remove furniture legs, if possible. Wrap each leg individually in plain newsprint, then keep the legs with the piece in a properly labeled bag or box.
Protect furniture corners with bubble wrap and a cardboard corner cut from an extra box. Tape the corner to the piece with masking tape.
Use furniture pads to prevent scratches and rips.
Place any throw pillows or covers in plastic bags to keep them clean.
