Frequently Asked Questions About Moving Blanket Types and Weights

1. What is the purpose of a moving blanket?
A moving blanket provides protective padding for furniture, appliances, and equipment during transportation or storage. It minimizes surface damage, vibration, and impact, ensuring safe delivery.

2. What are the different types of moving blankets?
UBMOVE offers Economy, Standard, and Heavy-Duty moving blankets. Each type varies in weight, thickness, and intended use, ranging from single-use to professional-grade protection.

3. How do I determine the right weight of moving blanket?
Select the weight based on the fragility and value of the item.

•    30–45 lbs/dozen: Basic coverage for light furniture.

•    54–65 lbs/dozen: Medium-duty protection for household goods.

•    72–90 lbs/dozen: Heavy-duty protection for delicate or high-value items.

4. When should I use economy moving blankets?
Economy blankets are ideal for short-term or one-time moves where cost efficiency is a priority. They provide basic surface protection for non-fragile items.

5. What makes heavy-duty moving blankets different?
Heavy-duty blankets are constructed with thick padding, reinforced stitching, and durable outer fabric. They offer superior impact resistance and can withstand repeated use in commercial operations.

6. Can moving blankets be reused?
Yes. UBMOVE heavier moving blankets are designed for multiple uses. Standard and heavy-duty options can be spot cleaned, folded, and reused without compromising protection.

7. Are moving blankets suitable for storage use?
Absolutely. Moving blankets provide long-term protection in storage units by preventing scratches, dust accumulation, and moisture damage.

8. Do I need different blanket types for long-distance moves?
Yes. For long-distance or interstate moves, heavy-duty blankets are recommended due to prolonged handling and vibration during transport.

9. How many moving blankets do I need?
The quantity depends on the size of the move. A small apartment may require 6–12 blankets, while full residential or commercial moves may need 24–60 blankets for full coverage.
