    Thanks for making this. Most of the people watching are probably not professional movers and trying to find an easy way to move things on their own. Thank you for the tip.

    I've worked since 2017 as a professional mover in Chicago and currently work for one of best companies in the city. On good day I stand 5 foot 8 and weigh 190 lbs wet. 3 weeks ago I bravely pressed a credenza up 3 flights of stairs with my co-worker that weighed about 225 lbs with my shoulder but that's due to the fact my boss refuses to get a two wheel dolley. Good job gentlemen and I wish we had this type of equipment at my company. Work smart not hard. Proper preparation prevents poor performance.

    The real challenge is finding a dolly with those nice large air filled tires. Uhaul and home depot have those small plastic caster wheels and they are a pain in the ass. Even just a door step! I just moved my 4 bedroom house this past week.... Next time I'm hiring packers and movers cause that was the worst 5 days of my life, packing and moving 100 degrees outside with 80% humidity.

    Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.

    Good video but not the safest way to move that dresser. I would have used an Appliance dolly/reefer dolly so that I can strap dresser securely. Or probably just easier to grab and go with another helper. Also I work with several Mexican/South American movers, and they are the hardest, most dependable, honest guys that I know. I'm Black and proud to call these guys my brothers. Much luck to you guys.

      @@sarahgaffney2183 You don't progress in the moving industry by moving dressers upstairs by yourself. You progress by using your brains and not taking a chance on hurting yourself or someone else so that you can work another day. In my twenty plus years working in this industry I've seen many guys hurt themselves unnecessarily by doing stupid things. I retired last year, and still have my health and no back problems. Because I used my brains just as much as my muscles.

    Please send this to the movers at Lowe's in Tampa as they have no idea how to move a refrigerator up my stairs. The dimensions on yours are identical to mine, but they didn't wrap the fridge or use a dolly to transport...just two clueless guys trying to carry it. It didn't work and they damaged my stairs and walls, so now I'm waiting on a second moving crew. Thanks for sharing your video. I'll show it to the next movers.

You gotta pick that thing up like two strong PROFESSIONAL movers and carry it up there!! By far the safest way. If professional movers show up to your house and start strapping your furniture on dollys and banging em against your stairs throw them out!!!

      Dressers are really not that heavy when using the right dolly that's equipped with slides that enable the dolly to slide easily up the stairs.
      The second man pushing up on the dresser can actually cause the load to be heavier for the guy on top, plus pushing up on the load can actually cause the dolly to separate from the dresser causing big problems.
      The second man should have at least went up with him as a spotter in case something went wrong.
