How do I move a flat-file cabinet safely?

Always empty all drawers before moving a flat-file cabinet — full drawers add substantial weight and shift the center of gravity dangerously. Remove drawers individually if possible to reduce the cabinet weight for lifting. Use furniture dollies or a flat cart for lateral movement. Tilt slightly toward the back wall to prevent drawers from falling open during transport. Two people are required for any cabinet larger than a 2-drawer 30" wide unit.
