How to choose moving blankets

June 25th, 2007

Moving blankets are often called moving pads , movers blankets , furniture pads or even warehouse pads .
So, what is the difference if there is a difference?
When it comes to moving blankets, there are three main questions you should ask yourself:

  • What do I need blankets for
  • What is my budget
  • How often will I use these blankets

Furniture pads are very often called economy grade moving blankets , they are light (approximately 4-5 lbs/per blanket) and made of
non-woven material. Recommended for one time moves, picknicking and camping purposes.
Professional movers prefer to invest in high quality moving blankets , which are no less than 7 lbs, made of woven or cotton fabric.
The most popular dimensions are 72″x80″, though you can find 72″x54″ and 80″x80″ as well.
