Moving House with Freight Shipping

Summer is upon us and that means it’s moving season! Here at ShippingDiscounts.com, we often assist customers who are moving house and need to ship freight. If you’re moving, here are some shipping tips just for you.

Furniture must be crated for freight shipping. See our post on LTL furniture shipping for details.

Personal items like clothes, books, and DVDs should be boxed. They can be moved as-is or you can palletize them to protect them further.

Mattresses must be covered for freight shipping. Covering options include plastic film, mattress boxes, and fitted mattress covers.

Washers and dryers can be shipped via freight as long as they are crated or boxed.

Insure valuable items, such as televisions, when you ship.

Happy moving!
