Moving a Chandelier

Chandeliers can be eye-catching beautiful pieces of art for the home. They tend to make a statement.  However, moving a chandelier can be difficult.

Usually, a chandelier is the first thing a visitor will see upon entering your home. After going through the search and cost of acquiring such a striking fixture, you will of course want to take proper care when moving it.

Unfortunately, as beautiful as your lighting fixture may be, it can be just as fragile, especially during the moving process.

Chandeliers are one of the special items which require additional preparation when planning for your move.

Depending on the type and size of your chandelier, you may require a custom box or wooden crate to ensure safe transport of your fixture from point A to point B.

During the estimate stage, while still shopping for your mover, be sure to point out the chandelier to your estimator and make sure the preparing and packing of your item is part of your estimate.

If you are moving yourself, it’s highly recommended you get help from an experienced professional when removing the chandelier and packing it for your move. Remember, if it was worth buying, it’s worth protecting.

Either way, whether you are moving yourself or using a professional, hire an electrician or general contractor to take the chandelier down and reinstall after moving.

They will be able to replace your chandelier with a different one to ensure there is no hole in your ceiling. Also, they make sure it is safely disconnected and reconnected.

Here at Flatbush Moving, we have experienced team members who can help you through the entire process of moving the chandelier.

We can have your chandelier disassembled, packed, crated and protected from the many moving parts of a relocation project.
