Which items classify as heavy?

If you are new to this, you could have a distorted image of what heavy items are. You could either overestimate or underestimate them. Thus, you could think that only massive furniture pieces, such as pianos and hot tubs are considered heavy. On the other hand, you could find even your dining chair to be heavy. The truth is that an average home has a large number of heavy items, which include sofas, big TVs, closets and bookshelves, among other things. Of course, some items, such as the aforementioned pianos, are in a category of their own, and they require piano movers due to their weight. For other, regular items, you need nothing more than decent and reputable movers.
