Risk of DIY Removals – Mishaps and Injuries that May Plague You

Moving is a nightmare – to start with – unless you are Goliath or Hulk. And that is plain and simple, the reason you ought to hire professional house removalists near you – and not without any reason. You must be strong enough to sustain the rigours of dismantling the cumbersome furniture and fittings and setting them up at the end of the move, packing and unpacking them, lifting and carrying them, dealing with stuff with sharp corners and edges, dealing with assets made up of glass… the list is endless. Without the right knowledge of handling them, or without the right tools, there is every possibility of having various types of injuries, and some of them can be deadly serious.

That is the reason, it is always a smart step to hire professionals who carry out removals in Oval or elsewhere in and around London. These people know the right way and have the right tools and techniques to come up with fast, perfect and safe removals. Thus, they will take the sting of removal off from your life.

Nevertheless, on this page let us discuss the common injuries that are generally associated with removals.

Sprained, Bruised and Stiff Backs: Back injuries are extremely common in removals. Back is the most important portion of our body, and plays a pivotal role in practically every activity, more so when it comes to picking heavy things up. And how can you move, without picking up your assets, if you move yourself. Wrong tactics of picking heavy things, and wrongful attempts to lift things that are heavier than what your back and waist can sustain will cause sprained, bruised and stiffened back. These are gruesome injuries that cause excruciating pain and cause serious mobility impairment. This is where the professional movers in Stockwell will come in handy. Firstly, they know the right tactics of lifting heavy stuff, and secondly, and more importantly, they have the right tools that will help them lift even the heaviest stuff effortlessly.

Broken hands, toes, fingers: This is another extremely common form of injury that is associated with moving. Inexperience, wrong ways of handling and absence of the right tools are the common causes of these injuries. Here again, intervention of quality man and van hire services in Streatham or elsewhere will make the difference. Again, their knowledge and the use of the right tools, protective gears that include sturdy gloves and specialised boots ensure that they generally do not have to suffer from these injuries.

Common scratches and Cuts: Moving would invariably involve dealing with stuff with sharp edges and corners, glass materials and other assets that may act as shrapnels. Thus, attempting to move without the right protective gears and the knowledge about the right techniques will cause scratches and cuts and some of them can actually be dangerous. Thus, hiring professionals offering house removals in Southwark will help you avert these injuries.

Sprained ankles & Knee pains: Not using dollies for moving heavier assets may prove to be highly dangerous for your knees and ankles. While you may sprain your ankle every now and then, carrying too heavy stuff will put excessive pressure on your knees and in worst case scenarios may cause rupture of your cartilage, and this is an extremely painful injury that may need surgery for restoration. Thus, hiring professionals is a wiser step as these professionals have tools including various types of dollies to move heavier items safely and swiftly.
