6. TOOL KIT
At Major Move we take pride in being condo and apartment specialists. That means we understand that many self-movers don’t have the tools needed to disassemble a bed or to take down those light fixtures that you want to take with you. That’s why we provide a Tool Kit as part of our rental products. Why go out and buy a tool set when you can rent one for a few bucks.
Our Tools Kits include everything you need:
Hammer, Pliers, Wrench set, Level, Measuring tape, Small saw, Screw driver set, Picture hanging nails, Allen key set, Drill, Drill bits.
7. BACK SUPPORT
Your back is by far the area that comes under the greatest stress while moving. In fact, many self-movers complain of back injuries and soreness directly due to moving. Besides using better lifting techniques, many injuries and back strains can be avoided by simply having a protective support belt to stabilize the back muscles. Major Move provides Back Support Belts that can be rented with every move for only $.29/day or $2.00/week.
8. COLEMAN STORAGE COOLER
Perhaps the most overlooked thing in a move is to make sure that things that need to be cool – stay cool. Major Move has that covered for you. We rent multi-purpose Coleman Coolers that can hold up to 59 litres or the equivalent of 85 cans. It has dual handles and wheels for easy carrying and can hold ice for 5 days at 90 degrees fahrenheit. Here are just some of the things that we suggest you maintain cool during your move:
Items That Require Cool Storage During a Move
- Perishable Frozen meats and foods
- Chilled or frozen beverages
- Infant food and bottles
- Medical supplies & sensitive drugs
- Heat sensitive camera and film equipment
- Great for storing snacks, sandwiches & drinks – saves on restaurants
Whether it’s a short move or a long trip, a cooler is a great way to ensure that your items stay fresh, cool and protected from the heat during the move. You can rent a Major Move Cooler for $.33per day or $7.00 for 2 weeks.
9. STEP LADDER
Forgot about that stuff in the top cupboard or the light fixtures you want to take down! How about cleaning the windows in the new place. Major Move has thought of that as well – and what you need is a step Ladder. Made of light-weight aluminum that can handle a workload of 250lbs, our step ladders come in 4 ft. & 8 ft. sizes.
Ladder Uses
- Hanging pictures
- Painting
- Cleaning windows
- Getting garage loft stuff
- Removing light fixtures
10. FURNITURE PADS/BLANKETS
Furniture Pads or Moving Blankets are highly recommended for protecting your belongings from scratch and scuff damage in transit as well as for placing under furniture to help slide it into place.
Moving Blankets are also used to protect items such as:
- Flat Panel T.V.
- Appliances
- Glass tables
- Dining table & chairs
- Coffee table
- Dressers
- Credenzas
- Picture frames & artwork
- Mirrors, Bookcases. (simply wrap around item & tape)

11. DOCUMENT SHREDDER
Moving gives you an opportunity to finally deal with that stuff that has been accumulating for years. In fact, do you really want to pack and move old heavy document boxes when you can simply shred them quickly. Major Move rents Document Shredders that are durable and easy to use and allow you to get rid of those unnecessary papers.
12. PRESSURE WASHER
You can’t always assume that the previous homeowner or tenant lived like Martha Stewart. In fact, most people don’t provide the common courtesy of cleaning their old residence prior to giving up the keys. In many cases, new homes and subdivisions aren’t even finished and ready for new homeowners. Renting a Pressure Washer from Major Move makes short work of cleaning decks, basements, sidewalks, driveways and garages.
