Step 6 · Move Furniture Slowly and Carefully

With adequate help, slowly and deliberately move the furniture. Communicate with your helpers to coordinate movements, especially on stairs. Avoid sliding the furniture or letting it bump into walls or railings. Keep the furniture as level as possible, particularly when navigating stairs, to maintain control and prevent damage to the items or the protected surfaces.
