The number of moving blankets you need depends on the size and number of items you are moving. As a general guideline, at least one moving blanket is recommended for each large piece of furniture such as sofas, mattresses, and dining tables. Also, you may need some extra blankets for fragile items or for extra cushioning. A little more blanket is better than not enough to ensure your belongings are properly protected during the move.
Pros recommend a dozen blankets for every 5 feet of truck length, so you may need as many as four dozen moving blankets for a 20-foot U-Haul. However, for a more accurate estimate, it is best to assess the needs of individual projects. Smaller pieces of furniture, such as nightstands, may only need one blanket, while larger pieces of furniture, such as entertainment centers or wardrobes, may need two blankets. For items that need to be disassembled, such as a dining table, you may need one blanket for the table top, one for binding the legs, and an extra blanket for each chair. Don’t forget to consider appliances and electronics too. A little more blankets is better than not enough, as running out of blankets on moving day can lead to damage to items. If you rent blankets, you can easily add a dozen more to your order without incurring a large fee. If you buy blankets, you can return unused blankets or sell them online. By following these guidelines and estimating higher, you can ensure you have enough blankets to protect your belongings during the move.
