FAQs

Protecting furniture during transport starts with proper padding, wrapping, and secure loading. At ET Transport, we use professional blankets, straps, corner guards, and stabilizing systems to protect furniture during local, long-distance, and cross-border shipments across Canada and the USA. Our trained crews ensure every piece is wrapped, secured, and positioned correctly to prevent damage.

The best way to transport furniture — especially bulky, heavy, or fragile items — is to use a specialized furniture logistics carrier. ET Transport provides FTL, LTL, and cross-border furniture shipping with trained handlers, proper equipment, and secure trailers. This ensures safer delivery than using couriers or moving a PPS or personal vehicle.

Fragile furniture should be fully wrapped with thick padding, foam, and protective covers. ET Transport offers fragile-item handling, including reinforced packing, upright positioning, and secure strapping for delicate furniture across Canada and the USA. Our methods reduce vibration, shifting, and breakage during transit.

Uber is not designed for moving furniture, and most vehicles cannot safely carry large or heavy items. For safe, insured, and adequately secured transport, ET Transport provides professional furniture shipping services throughout Canada and the U.S., offering commercial-grade equipment and trained staff.

While small items may fit, Uber does not support transporting full furniture. ET Transport is a safer option, offering dedicated trucks, secure loading, and reliable delivery for home office and commercial furniture across Canada and the USA.

To transport furniture, disassemble what you can, wrap each piece correctly, and use a truck equipped for secure loading. ET Transport handles the entire process — packing, loading, securing, and cross-border compliance — for shipments moving within Canada, within the U.S., or between both countries.

A professional carrier can best handle the cross-country furniture shipping. ET Transport provides nationwide and cross-border Canada–USA furniture transport, using secure trailers, protective padding, and 24/7 monitored logistics for long-distance deliveries.

Besides good performance, their integrity is extremely high and they stand by their commitments.
