How to Move Furniture in Amsterdam
Posted by Cassie, September 6th, 2009
All the houses in Amsterdam are narrow and have steep staircases. Therefore, it can be a challenge to get furniture moved in. All the houses have gables at the top that a rope can be attached to for moving heavy objects through the window. We woke up one morning to find that the house across from our hotel was moving a chest of drawers out of the house.
