For apartment buildings and houses with elevators, it is important to measure the elevator's interior height, the opening, and the distance to the opposite wall.
Measure the diagonal depth and width of the items as shown below to determine if they will fit through your entryways. Also, if necessary, make sure to:
- Secure low-hanging light fixtures
- Remove doors
- Set rugs in place
- Remove wall art and clocks
- Move other furniture out of the way
- Put pets in another room
