The 10 Worst Furniture Moving Fails

by Julian Ankersmit / Thursday, 06 November 2014 / Published in Latest posts, Moving Funnies


He-Van, Movers of the Universe  your Brighton Removals service has gone and picked you lucky people 10 of our favourite removal fails, a combination of the clumsy, the drunk and the plain stupid.

 

#10 The Sofa Out The Window Shortcut

Do you need to get rid of that smelly old cat wee stained couch but can’t be bothered to struggle down the stairs with it ?
Don’t worry!  Just throw it out of the window but be careful, gravity doesn’t always work the way you want it to – doh.

#9 The Sofa Ladder Shortcut

Well you know what they say  – safety in numbers, if you can not move your sofa invite 2 friends around,  force them to help and well your at it give them some wobbly ladders, honestly what can go wrong ?

#8 The Wrong Rope Whoopsie

If you are going to precariously dangle your sofa from the top of your house remember use the right straps, it’s no good making a rope out of pants and socks if you £8000 Bugatti Grain Leather Sofa plummets to a perilous grave.

#7 The Do It Yourself Mover

There is a few things we tend to look out for whilst completing a move and here is our rule number 1 – always check your doors. At least they saved a tenner?!

#6 The Mad Man Method

This guy either has a) an extremely out of the box method to moving his refrigerator down the road or b) an extremely bad method of getting a fridge into the back of a vehicle.  Oh yeh! We just thought we would mention that you never lay a fridge on its back or side, that’s a big no no 😉

#5 The Optimistic Risk Taker

What happens if you stand an extremely heavy upright piano on a truck and then attempt to drive around without it tied down, well this of course.

#4 The Leap Of Faith Let Go

What would happen if you placed an extremely heavy sled like object  at the top of stairs with only one person to hold the weight and let go? They would probably end up with a paper like physique. Luckily this individual managed to dodge the piano bullet.

#3 The Dutch Courage Carry 

You may think necking back a can of Super Tenants will give you a bit of dutch courage when it comes to moving home but we assure you alcohol and removals aren’t a good mixture. Not only could you end up leaving a hole in your wall that puts the Arizona Meteor crater to shame but you could also end up like a looking like a pancake man.

#2 The TARDis Enthusiast

Nobody has the monopoly on wisdom and some times in removals you just have to have faith in someone else’s judgment. This guy has obviously just thought of an angle and method  that we as simple minded folk just can’t understand!

1# The Fantastic Fridge Finale

Where did it all go wrong? the positioning, the grip, the angle, the footwork, the alcohol, who knows! All we can say is at least he didn’t let go ?! ouch.

We hope you enjoyed it!
