Hand Trucks, Moving Dollies, and Lift Straps!

There are some very important items that should be available during a move. Not only to save time and energy, but to also avoid any person or thing from getting injured during the move.

The idea behind a moving dolly is to assist in moving heavy or awkward sized objects by rolling them the where they have to go. The same goes for a hand truck, these tools can keep the movers, the floors, and the object itself from being damaged. Too often, large boxes, pieces of furniture, or electronics get ruined because they are moved too hastily or dropped due to their weight.

Using Furniture Covers During a Move and After

Furniture covers are commonly used to protect furniture during a move. They are also useful for other purposes while moving or something totally unrelated.

Furniture covers are made out of a quilted fabric similar to moving blankets. They are roomy “slip covers” that are made to fit over anything from sofas to flat screen televisions.

Organic Latex Mattress Vs Natural Latex Mattress – What’s the Difference and Who Cares?

In this article I want to clear the air as to what constitutes “Certified Organic” vs. the all natural aka “botanically derived latex” used by manufacturers of latex foam mattresses. As of today there is only one truly USDA/EU Certified Organic Latex used for latex mattress cores and latex mattress toppers. The company that manufactures that product has very limited amounts available so there are only a handful of mattress factories in the United States that can even get their hands on it.

The company that has broken the “Certified Organic Latex” barrier is Latex Green located in Sri Lanka. This has taken years to accomplish. Latex Green had to isolate a large part of their rubber tree plantation and keep it free from any chemical pesticides and chemical fertilizers for years until it was finally awarded the organic certification in both the US and EU. In addition, a portion of the manufacturing plant had to also be isolated and kept sterile. This was a major undertaking and huge expense to pull this off but Latex Green’s commitment to the earth and our environment has been nothing short of commendable and greatly appreciated by those of us who offer non-toxic sleep solutions.
