I am not sure what they are called but...
Have any of you tried those round things that help to move heavy furniture? I guess you put them under the legs and it is supposed to help move it along even over carpet.

my step mother swears by them the one or two times i've ever used them they worked pretty good, but she uses them all the time, she's always rearrnaging the house and she's quite small but she can move big things with them, the key is getting the heavy things onto the pads by herself lol

Is there a particular one she uses?

Oh yeah, I already thought of that dilemna, LOL
I'm trying to figure out the best way to move the furniture so I can finish painting. Sofa is easy enough, but not the fish tank (empty is too heavy for me to carry) and the curio cabinet.

it's not that hard to lift it cuz you just have to lift one corner at a time

The ones she uses are these

When I first posted I had trouble looking them up because I couldn't think of what the heck they were called, LOL

I need to go to Lowes or Home Depot this week. I'll look to see if they have some.

lol i was thinking they had to do with moving men but couldn't remember so i had to google it and it popped up lol, i'm sure homedepot or lowes would have them they've been out for a long time

Walmart has some and i saw soem the other day soemwhere for $5. I have them under all the heavy stuff..lol.. ic an move my oak entertainment center loaded with them. They used to be called moving men when the 1st ones came out.

We have them as well. We got ours at Lowes and they have been great for DH to move the curio, he was having a heck of a time trying to move it without them.

Good to know they work. I will be picking some up today.

My parents have them and use them alot!

My MIL swears by them!! Good luck.

I picked some up. Will see how well they work this weekend.

Use a husband...if you have one that works...I don't though! I have a lazy one.

I have a husband who is willing, but it takes two men to move some of this furniture. LOL

Besides, I may want to rearrange things and it makes him crazy. "Put it there... no, maybe over there..no, how bout there?" LOL

we bought some for our move this past week and they were great!!! lifesavers that's for sure. We got a pack of like 16 at walmart for I think $13?

It was easy to move the glass dragon enclosure with them. I picked up more because I need to move a fish tank and stand. If it works, then that means I have to paint, LOL

Oh great to know they work.
