Serving Charleston, SC & the Lowcountry
Some vibration is normal during spin, but heavy shaking or “walking” across the floor is not.

Unlevel machine
The most common and easiest to fix.
Worn suspension springs or shocks
Absorb the drum's movement — when worn, the whole machine shakes.
Overloaded drum
Uneven weight distribution during spin.
Shipping bolts not removed
A common oversight on newly installed machines.
What You Can Safely Check Yourself
Check that all four feet are firmly on the floor and the machine is level using a bubble level.
When to Call a Professional
Heavy shaking that persists after leveling usually means worn suspension components. Daniel Appliance Repair offers same-day and next-day appointments across Charleston, SC and the surrounding Lowcountry.
