You live in an apartment block, I'm guessing. That's the danger of it.
Try banging the roof. They'll bang back at first but eventually they'll get the message. Or you'll end up like that guy from Friends.
Then again, if it's not at night you can't really say much about it. People are entitled to make noise in their own homes. Headphones?

Don't bang on the ceiling. That's just rude and passive aggressive. Try explaining politely that the noise is really audible in your flat and it's extremely distressing since it activates your post traumatic stress disorder and reminds you of bombs/ your abusive childhood. If they keep making noise kill their pet/child and nail it to their front door.
Ours tend to be drunk and shouting at each other. Not even arguments, just normal conversation. It's not that often, and they usually come round and apologize the next day, but if they're yelling at each other at 3AM during exam time I'm going to do something particularly unpleasant to be specified at a later date.
Are you sure it's re-arranging furniture, for one, and not some other noise? The lift in our apartment complex makes similar noises.
That being said, some neighbours are just impossible.
I had a woman living above me who laughed at night (sounding totally crazy), made other frustrating noises, like a computer going 'bling' for a whole weekend every few seconds, and eventually flooded her flat so it started raining in my home, didn't answer on the door even after I called the building manager (they had to talk their way in).
And then vanished and didn't return any calls so it took months to repair the damage because they couldn't get to the flat where the flooding happened.
Also, my sister had a neighbour once who liked to play electric quitar middle of the night. And was a total douche about it and in general because his parents owned the building or something.

OT: Go over with a shotgun and say that you're hunting loud noises and must shoot on hearing, see if they get the irony...
I remeber living in a dorm at school...worse than living with furniture moving neighbors...
people get up to all manner of stuff in their "private" places, by private i mean home/apartment/condo/dorm whatever. That being said people often dont realize that shared walls (often the case when people have complaints about noise) tend to make things not so private.
As for advice, tough one there...do you best to be civilised if you talk to them about it...beyond that no idea.

She answered the door with the blood on her hands and told them that, while she didn't, strictly speaking, LIVE at the house, she'd be happy to...talk...with them, if they wanted to come in for a bit. They decided that they were needed somewhere else.Aetheora said:How on Earth does having blood on your hands stop Mormons?freakydan said:
EVERY year on new years my neighbor light fireworks all night (literaly, i checked and from 12pm to when it got bright they were setting off fireworks) and i was sick last year and couldnt sleep because of the noise, the entire street was up and i think a few other neighbors called the cops or something.
i... that is... genius.freakydan said:
OT: isnt this exactly why Jesus gave America the right to own bear arms or something?
just tell them politely if they dont stop moving furniture, you won't stop firing your shotgun into the ceiling/wall (just... use blanks).
or do a Byron and actually buy a bear.
