CVLU Episode 2: How to Protect Your Home While Moving

hello Rick here with Colonial Van Lines

University the official training

facility of colonial Van Lines Welcome

to our Channel where we provide

specialized training for our moving

professionals today we’re going to

discuss protecting the home

[Music]

okay first thing we do is protect the

front door what we do is we take a

moving pad and we drape it over the top

of the door you secure the pad in place

using a rubber band then you tuck the

pad into the door and that holds it in

place so when you’re bringing a large

piece of furniture out you can use the

PAD as Extra Protection for the piece of

furniture here at Colonial Van Lines we

roll out the red carpet for our

customers

we use rug Runners to protect our

customers floors not only marble floors

but wood floors it’s a rubber backed mat

that we put down in highly trafficked

areas to protect the floor from dirt and

grime and scratches here at Colonial Van

Lines another piece of equipment we use

to protect our clients home is a door

jamb protector it’s a pad moving pad

that’s been cut down and there are three

Springs that have been sewn into it you

take the door jamb protector

and you hook the Three Springs

around the door jamb

this protects the paint and the door

jamb from chips and also gives you a

little bit more protection if you’re

bringing large pieces of furniture

through the doorway

okay folks today we discussed protecting

our customers home a very very important

part of the move and thank you for
