Moving a stove is not a one-person job — and it’s not something to improvise. Between the weight, the gas or electric connections, the flooring underneath, and the tight fit between cabinets, a stove move done carelessly can mean scratched floors, damaged cabinetry, a bent appliance, or a serious safety hazard if connections aren’t handled properly.
At Straight Paths Moving, we move stoves safely and professionally. We come prepared for the weight, the logistics, and the details that make appliance moves more involved than they appear.
Preparation:We confirm the stove type — gas or electric — and coordinate around any disconnection that needs to happen before we arrive. We also assess the kitchen layout, flooring type, and the path the stove will travel on its way out.
Floor Protection: Before the stove moves an inch, we lay down protective covering on your kitchen floor and along the route to the exit. This prevents scratches, gouges, and scuffs.
Safe Extraction: We carefully remove the stove from its cutout, clearing cabinet edges and protecting the surrounding area throughout.
Secure Transport: The stove is loaded upright and secured in the truck to prevent shifting during transport.
Delivery and Placement : At the destination, we position the stove in its new location. Reconnection to gas or electric should be handled by a qualified technician — we’ll have it in place and ready for that step.
For safety reasons, gas stoves must be disconnected by a licensed plumber or gas technician before our crew can move them. Electric stoves that are hardwired rather than plug-in also require an electrician for disconnection. We’re happy to help coordinate timing around those appointments so your move stays on schedule.
