1. When choosing a local furniture mover, it is important to consider the type of furniture being moved and the size of the move. 
2. It is also important to verify that the furniture mover has a valid license and insurance, as well as experience moving large items. 
3. Always use a professional furniture mover when moving large or fragile pieces of furniture, and be sure to read their quoted price before agreeing to move. 
4. Verify that the furniture mover will arrive on time and do what they say they will do - if there are any damages or issues, be sure to speak up right away! 
5. If you have any questions about your move or the company you are working with, don't hesitate to ask - check reviews online before making your decision, too.
