Protecting soft furniture during the move...

I'm planning on a DIY move (hire a van & some mates) and was wondering if anybody had any tips for protecting a nice settee (2 seater) and arm chair during the process, as I really don't want to harm them at all.
I've seen decorators on TV using big rolls of sticky back plastic to cover flooring and carpets whilst painting and wondered if this might be an option...
Any advice?

You can buy this stuff from - screwfix direct. You could try covering the furniture with dust sheets first, then the sticky plast sheeting.0

Don't see the point anymore in offering advice to people who only want to be agreed with...0 -
A couple of old blankets and then wrap it up with that giant cling-film stuff that they use in warehouses.0

I used polythene dust sheets.
Available for 65p from Toolstation: http://www.toolstation.com/index.html?code=92894
Then I just used parcel tape to "wrap up" the sofa
